Section 25. Control and supersession.

(1) If the board of managers of an association fail to perform their functions under this Act or the bye-laws, on receipt of a complaint from the association, or an apartment owner, in such manner, as may be prescribed, the competent authority may give such direction, as it deems fit. (2) If the competent authority is of the opinion that the functioning of any manager or the board of managers of any association is detrimental to the interest of the association or of the apartment owners or is against the public interest, the competent authority may give a notice to the manager or the board of managers, to show cause, as to why he should not be removed or, the board not be superseded, as the case may be. If the reply of the manager or the board of managers is not considered satisfactory, the competent authority may, by order remove the manager or supersede the board of managers, as the case may be, and appoint any member from amongst the members of that association or any other person as administrator to perform the functions of the board of managers, for a period not exceeding six months: Provided that the competent authority may, if it considers necessary so as to do, by order extend the said period for a further period, not exceeding six months at a time, so, however, that the aggregate period shall not exceed three years.
