Elected members of the Committee elect the office bearers by majority. It is a number game and it is not banned. Two women on Committee is compulsory if there women member in the Society. This is within the total strength of the Committee and not Extra. Society can make bye laws and file with the Registrar and if he finds them in accordance with Cooperative Society Law he will register.
