Conduct AGM Voting and Pass Society Resolutions Online

Housing Societies, RWAs, and Cooperative Housing Societies conduct Annual General Meetings (AGMs) every year to discuss important matters and take decisions that affect their members. Many AGM discussions require members to vote on resolutions, proposals, approvals, and other society matters. With Right2Vote, societies can conduct such voting digitally and allow eligible members to participate in the decision-making process. Instead of depending entirely on physical voting during an AGM, societies can use an online voting system for resolutions and member polls, subject to their applicable bye-laws and legal requirements. Members can review the matter presented for voting and cast their vote through the designated online voting process. This can make AGM voting more organized, convenient, and easier to manage. Digital voting can also help maintain voting records and provide an auditable record of the voting process. As societies conduct AGMs every year, eVoting can provide a repeatable and convenient way to conduct member voting and pass resolutions.
