Further, if an employees' association is registered under the Societies' Registration Act

or the Trade Unions Act, the respective Registrars shall supply copies of the bye-laws

to any member of such Association on request and on payment of prescribed fees.

Employees welfare association are recognized under CCS(Recognization of Service Association) rules 1993. Membership subscription is through compulsary deduction through the salary of the respective government employee. No government servant can join more than one association. The DDO also has to maintain a register and membership roll, which he has to send to the nodal office every year.

Besides, every year the secretary of the association has to submit its bylaws, statement of accounts, membership list as well as names and contact details of the office bearers etc.

Though a service association cannot be treated as a seperate Public Authority, you can always file an RTI Application with the PIO of the respective PA seeking information.

Best wishes

Dear Sirs,

I have asked under RTI to a public authority about their employees bye laws. The PIO informed me that the employees association is not under their purview. But activities of the association are supported by the goverment by regulating the DOPT orders on RSA Rules and their subcriptions and etc are being deducted from the salaries of the employee by the management. I feel its falls under the definition of the public authority under section 2 h (a,b,c,d). can I appeal for bye laws to the 1 AA.
