IT News,
Imphal, May 26:

In an investigation by the Imphal Times, the Manipur Registrar of Societies has been found violating its own guidelines by registering two associations with the same name. During Imphal Times’ investigation, two associations with the same name and style as Imphal East District Wushu Association were discovered registered in 2016 and 2019, which is against the law.
The registration number of Imphal East District Wushu Association, which was registered in 2016, is 561/SR (IE/2016) and the registration number of another Imphal East District Wushu Association, which was registered in 2019, is 159/SR (IE)/2019.
No society shall be registered under a name that is identical to or too nearly resembles the name of any other society or body corporate that has been previously registered or incorporated under the Act or any other law for the time being in force, as the case may be, or is deemed to have been registered under the Act, according to Section 10 of the Manipur Societies Registration Act, 1989. In addition, Rule 13 of the Manipur Societies Registration Rules, 2004 stipulates that when an application for registration is received, it must be investigated in the office of the Registrar of Societies to see if societies with similar or nearly similar names have already been registered.
In the present case, the registrar of societies failed to comply with the provisions of the laws by registering the two same name associations.
