It is a structural renovation work and considered to be a major renovation work.
The procedure to carry out this task is to obtain structural audit report from a structural engineer by the society and it is responsible for carrying out renovation work out of the corpus funds available with the society.
It can demand additional funds from all the members of the society if necessary.
If the society office bearers are not cooperating then the aggrieved members can resort to legal action against the office bearers as per procedures of law.
Inside the flat pillars needs to repair by flat owners and parking area and common area pillars needs to repair by society.
i am shocked at the response of the society
the land and building are owned by the society
so the society has to carry out the repairs using its funds
it cannot foist that on the flat owners
you have to bring this to the notice of the corporation because it is also the duty of the corporation to see to it that there is no damage caused to the passers by and neighboring occupants if a dilapidated building collapses
If the construction has been done under the supervision of society, it is to be totally repaired only through them. Because all the flat owners did not construct the building.
Construction is 20 years old
It is coming under structural renovation only hence it becomes the duty f the association to undertake the repair/renovation work and has to bear the expenses through the corpus funds.
It can obtain extra funds only if the corpus funds are not sufficient for this work.
Than better to go for reconstruction or redevelopment work with the help of all society members.
If you arrange meeting in the society. I can explain all details and benefits of redevelopment or reconstruction.
