Under what circumstances can a co-operative society's board be superseded or suspended in India?
A co-operative society's board can be superseded or suspended in India under circumstances such as persistent default, negligence in performing duties, committing acts prejudicial to the society or its members, stalemate in the constitution or functions of the board, or failure of the authority or body to conduct elections as required by the State Act. However, the board cannot be superseded or suspended for more than six months, and there are specific exemptions for societies without government involvement and those involved in banking.
