The Mizoram Societies Registration (Amendment) Act, 2012
The Mizoram Societies Registration (Amendment) Act, 2012 updates the legal mechanism for supervising, managing, and dissolving registered non-governmental organizations, clubs, and voluntary associations across Mizoram. It empowers the Registrar of Societies to suspend or cancel registrations for governance defaults, non-filing of returns for three consecutive years, insolvency, or unlawful activities without requiring lengthy court proceedings. It also allows the State Government to appoint an Administrator to manage mismanaged societies and conduct fresh elections. This law protects public interest and members' rights by ensuring transparency, financial accountability, and swift administrative remedies for public associations.
