I am a joint member in Ispat Pally cooperative housing society, Durgapur-12,West Bengal. I have share certificate with my father. My Father is a Principal member of this society. Now he is 84 years old and bed ridden.
Some bad elements in our society including a few board members insist my dad for cancelling this joint membership with my dad. They have convinced him that joint membership means legal heir in future. That’s why my elder brother and his wife also pressurized to my dad for cancelling this membership with me.
We are two brothers. My mother has already been expired. We are both married. Now my Dad has produced a cancellation letter to the society and has given some false allegations that I am not kind to him.
Can society or board members cancel my joint membership on the above-mentioned ground? Secretary told me that joint member is hardly a membership and I do not deserve even intimation. Only my Dad will be informed.

Joint Membership does not come to an end at the desire of the Principal Member. Either a Joint member resigns or a Principal member dies that Joint member ceases to be so.
