CASES, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:

                                           10

                                 JUDGMENT

[WP(C) Nos.34824/2014, 9317/2021, 18667/2022, 20630/2021, 21317/2021]

This Court had passed an interim order in these batch of cases

on 29.01.2024 which is self explanatory and is, therefore, extracted

for ease of reading.

Prima facie, as matters now stand, the provisions of the Kerala Apartment Ownership Act, 1983 (the 'Act' for short), have not been made mandatory, as is evident from Section 2 thereof.

2. While some of the petitioners in this batch of matters require the 'Act' to be made compulsory; the others maintain that as long as it has not been made so, they cannot be forced to sign declarations, or their apartments brought under its ambit without their juncture.

3. Learned Government Pleader - Sri.Rajeev Jyothish George, submitted that this controversy has already caught the attention of the Government and that they have constituted a Committee to decide whether the 'Act' should be made mandatory, by amending Section 2. He submitted that, if the petitioners are so interested, they can be given an opportunity of being heard by the said Committee.

4. The learned counsel for the petitioners in W.P. (C).Nos.34824/2014, 21317/2021 and 18667/2022 submitted that, they would be happy to be given an opportunity of being heard by the Committee, so that they could place their objections before the same; while the learned counsel for the petitioners in other writ petitions submitted that, their assertions are only that as long as the statute is not made mandatory, registration cannot be allowed without the juncture of all the owners.

5. In the afore circumstances, I direct the learned Government Pleader to obtain instructions from the respondents as to when the Committee has scheduled its next meeting, so that the willing petitioners in these cases can be heard.

List for further consideration on 06.02.2024.

2. Today, the learned Government Pleader - Sri.Rajeev WPC 34824/14 & connected

Jyothish George, submitted that the Government has constituted a

High Level Committee to identify and rectify discrepancies, if any,

between the Apartment Ownership Act, 1983 and Real Estate

Regulatory Authority Act, 2016; and that it is scheduled to meet on

22.02.2024. He explained that the Convener of the Committee is the

Secretary of the Real Estate Regulatory Authority ('RERA'); and that

all the petitioners, as well as any other citizen, can approach it with

their recommendations, so that they can look into the same,

particularly from the angle of deciding whether the Apartment

Ownership Act, 1983, must be made mandatory; and as to the

points of conflict, if any, between the said Act and the Real Estate

Regulatory Authority Act, 2016.

3. Sri.Jacob Mathew Manalil and Sri.Johnson Gomez -

learned counsel appearing for some of the petitioners in these cases,

submitted that their clients are willing to appear before the

Committee and place their suggestions for its consideration;

however, arguing vehemently that, even going by the Apartment

Ownership Act, 1983, de hors Section 2 thereof, it is obvious that it

has the nature of being mandatory for all Apartment Complexes. WPC 34824/14 & connected

They, however, acceded that Section 2, as it presently stands in the

Apartment Ownership Act, 1983, causes some concern; and

therefore, prayed that liberty be reserved to their clients to approach

this Court again, in future, if it becomes so warranted.

4. Sri.Vinod Bhat and Sri.A.K.Haridas - learned counsel

appearing for some of the other petitioners - who opposes the

registration of apartments under the Apartment Ownership Act,

1983, without their juncture - also submitted that they will use the

opportunity to appear before the Committee and impress upon them

the need for retaining Section 2 as is presently available; further

arguing that there is no dispute between the Apartment Ownership

Act, 1983 and the 'RERA' Act. They prayed that the interim order

granted by this Court in their respective Writ Petitions be

maintained, until such time as the recommendations of the

Committee are considered by the Government and appropriate orders

issued.

5. It is thus obvious from the afore rival positions adopted

by the various counsel that, as matters now stand, the issues

impelled in these Writ Petitions are under the consideration of the WPC 34824/14 & connected

Government of Kerala, for which, they have constituted the afore

High Level Committee. The question whether the Apartment

Ownership Act, 1983, is mandatory, or to be deemed to be

mandatory; and whether, as per its present tenor, registrations can

be allowed without the junction of all the owners of apartments, are

issues which certainly will have to be considered by the Committee,

taking note of the rival and dialectical versions to be placed by

them before the various stakeholders. It would not be, therefore,

prudent for this Court to enter into it at this time and answer these

issues one way or the other; though I am of the firm view that

certain specific time frames will have to be fixed, for the Committee

to make their recommendations and for the Government to consider

further actions, including the amendment of the Act, as may be

warranted.

In the afore circumstances, with the consent of both sides, I

dispose of these Writ Petitions in the following manner:

a) I leave liberty to the petitioners in these cases, as also

any other person who may be interested, to appear before the

Committee on 22.02.2024 and in the subsequent meetings and WPC 34824/14 & connected

present their versions, including suggestions before it, in a written

form, to be presented through its Convener.

b) The Committee will - on receipt of the afore suggestions

and after fixing a time frame for completion of same, which shall be

a minimum of two weeks after 22.02.2024 - deliberate upon the

issues, after hearing every necessary party and will take a final

decision as to the recommendations to be made before the

Government, viz a viz, the points of reference given to them. A

final report in this regard, containing their recommendations, shall

be placed by the Committee before the Government within a period

of three months from 22.02.2024.

c) The Government, on receiving the recommendations from

the Committee, will consider the same and take a final decision,

including as to the amendment to be carried out with respect to the

relevant legislations, or to any modifications/requirements to be

brought in, leading to appropriate action being completed on it, as

expeditiously as is possible, but not later than three months

thereafter. In the event any amendment is found warranted, action

for same shall be completed; for which purpose, an additional two WPC 34824/14 & connected

months is hereby granted.

d) Until such time as the afore is completed and necessary

orders issued by the Government in terms of directions (c) above,

the interim order granted in these cases will continue to be in force;

with a further clarification that any registration of declarations made

under the Apartment Ownership Act, 1983, without the consent and

concurrence of all owners, as far as WP(C)No.9317/202 is concerned,

will not visit the petitioners therein or any other unwilling person,

with any coercive consequences. This will, however, depend upon

the final decision to be taken by the Government in terms of the

afore directions.

e) Needless to say, the liberty of the petitioners to approach

this Court for any valid reason, either during the pendency of the

afore ordered exercise or thereafter, are left open; for which

purpose, all rival contentions are also left undecided.
