Societies formed by memorandum of association and registration. Most commonly Society registered under SOCIETIES REGISTRATION ACT, 1860.The property, movable and immovable belonging to a society registered under this Act, if not vested in trustees, shall be deemed to be vested, for the time being, in the governing body of such society, and in all proceedings civil and criminal, may be described as the property of the governing body of such society for their proper title.

The secretary is not the only person who is in the management committee, the president can be approached, or issue a legal notice about it.\

The builder is bound to hand over conveyance deed if  not a collective action also can be taken against his reluctance

This is ruled under society registration act - effect of registration - lawful vesting properties of societies.

Instead write to registrar of society (not require) and request to demit secretary office and reelection.
