BESA demands re-verification of nomination paper
filed for 2nd MV by participating associations
It is
understood that many associations participating in 2nd MV have lost
their All India Registration under Central Act i.e. Society Registration
Act 1860. Whereupon, such associations got themselves registered under State
Act such as Haryana Registration and Regulation of Societies Act 2012 and
Madhya Pradesh Society Registrikaran Adhiniyam 1973, etc.
Pertinently,
these State Acts have extent and application only to the State of their Registration
for the purpose of Article 246 of Constitution of India, extracted as
under, -
246. (3) Subject
to clauses (1) and (2), the Legislature of any State has exclusive power to
make laws for such State or any part thereof with respect to any of the matters
enumerated in List II in the Seventh Schedule (in this Constitution referred to
as the “State List”.
Therefore, any association registered under State Act has no
legal status outside the state of registration and thus cannot be allowed to
contest 2nd MV on All India Basis.
