This meeting is the Annual General Body Meeting and is provisioned to ensure the minimum required communication. The topics to be handled in this meeting are pre-defined and are usually of the nature to be discussed on a yearly basis.<\/p>\n<p>But the society is a dynamic management entity with multiple events happening simultaneously. It could so happen that the general body\u2019s assembly becomes a necessity for discussing an urgent matter at hand. Postponing the discussion for that year\u2019s AGM would mean a long wait. Also, the topic could be so vast and of great importance that squeezing it in an AGM could prove inefficient and counter-effective.<\/p>\n<p>Hence, to cater to such situations a provision is made for a Special General Body Meeting, commonly referred to as SGM. But what is it exactly?<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>A Special General Body Meeting is the meeting that can be called anytime and any number of times during the year but for a particular discussion topic that requires the presence and undivided attention of the general body.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=&#8221;1&#8243; module_id=&#8221;when&#8221; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;4px||6px|||&#8221; border_color_top=&#8221;#000000&#8243; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_row _builder_version=&#8221;4.18.0&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;11px|auto||auto||&#8221; custom_padding=&#8221;8px|10px||10px|false|true&#8221; border_width_bottom=&#8221;2px&#8221; border_color_bottom=&#8221;#edb83d&#8221; border_style_bottom=&#8221;double&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_column type=&#8221;4_4&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.17.4&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;][et_pb_text _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Raleway||||||||&#8221; header_font=&#8221;Quicksand|700|||||||&#8221; header_text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; header_text_color=&#8221;#0b2542&#8243; header_font_size=&#8221;1.8rem&#8221; header_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; header_2_font=&#8221;Quicksand|700|||||||&#8221; header_2_text_align=&#8221;left&#8221; header_2_text_color=&#8221;#0b2542&#8243; header_2_font_size=&#8221;1.8rem&#8221; header_2_line_height=&#8221;1.4em&#8221; custom_margin=&#8221;||2px|||&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<h2>When to schedule an SGM?<\/h2>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text quote_border_weight=&#8221;3px&#8221; quote_border_color=&#8221;#fdb913&#8243; _builder_version=&#8221;4.19.2&#8243; _module_preset=&#8221;default&#8221; text_font=&#8221;Quicksand|500|||||||&#8221; text_text_color=&#8221;rgba(0,0,0,0.75)&#8221; text_font_size=&#8221;1.1rem&#8221; text_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.1px&#8221; text_line_height=&#8221;2em&#8221; quote_font=&#8221;Quicksand||||||||&#8221; quote_text_align=&#8221;justify&#8221; quote_text_color=&#8221;#0b2542&#8243; quote_font_size=&#8221;1.1rem&#8221; quote_letter_spacing=&#8221;0.1px&#8221; text_orientation=&#8221;justified&#8221; text_font_size_tablet=&#8221;20px&#8221; text_font_size_phone=&#8221;17px&#8221; text_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; quote_text_align_tablet=&#8221;justify&#8221; quote_text_align_phone=&#8221;left&#8221; quote_text_align_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; quote_font_size_tablet=&#8221;20px&#8221; quote_font_size_phone=&#8221;17px&#8221; quote_font_size_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; text_orientation_tablet=&#8221;justified&#8221; text_orientation_phone=&#8221;left&#8221; text_orientation_last_edited=&#8221;on|phone&#8221; inline_fonts=&#8221;Gotham_Medium&#8221; global_colors_info=&#8221;{}&#8221;]<\/p>\n<p>SGM stems out of necessity and hence there is no timeframe under which it should be scheduled.
