RULES AND
REGULATIONS
Article-5: Withdrawal /
discontinuance / expulsion of Members:
5.1 A member
may withdraw from the Society signifying his/her wish to do so in a letter
addressed to the General Secretary to the Society. He/she shall, however, not be entitled
for the refund of any fees paid by him/her. Any member so resigning may, however,
apply for re-admission subsequently if he/she so desires.
5.2 A member
who has withdrawn and whose subscription is not in arrears shall automatically
recover the privileges of membership without any prejudice to the continuance
of his/her membership, if he/she rejoins the Society within the period for
which his/her subscriptions are paid.
5.3 Members who
do not pay their annual subscription by 31st July will cease to be
the members of the Society. On
re-application for membership they will not normally be entitled for the issues
of the journal for the concerned year published prior to the date of
re-enrolment. A request for the
back issues of the year for which the payment of the membership is delayed
after 31st July, can, however, be made to the Executive Council,
which if considered in the interest of the Society, may accept such
requests. However, he/she shall
lose his/her rights to hold an office and/or right to nominate and vote.
5.4 Any member
indulging in such activities, which are considered to be against the interest
of the Society or hinder the functioning of the Society, shall cease to be a
member of the Society. The
Executive Council of the Society will discuss such case on merit and in case
the majority decision is for expelling a member, it will refer the matter to
the General Body of the Society, which may be convened for this purpose, if
necessary. In case the matter is
urgent and the General Body meeting likely to be delayed, the Executive Council
may resort to opinion poll among the members of the Society through secret
postal ballot. The members who do
not communicate their negative opinion through ballot will be considered to
have agreed to the proposal of the Executive Council. The expulsion will be effected
if two-third or more of the members on rolls on the date of the opinion poll
vote for it. The general body can
expel a member from the Society for a fixed term of two or more years or the
entire life period, if it finds that the damage caused by the member to the
Society is irreparable. The
expulsion orders by General Body shall also apply to the Life Members. The expelled members will have neither
right to nominate and vote nor can they contest for any office of the Society.
