Ananda Marga Pracaraka Samgha: Difference between revisions

The '''organizational''' side of AMPS consists of elected organizational positions and some elected top-level boards. There are also advisory committees and boards (ACBs) for various departments as well as some executive committees and boards, all of which are typically constituted by an elected officeholder. For example, the Purodha Pramukha (the highest authority in AMPS), the Purodha Board, and the Central Committee are all elected by the body of all recognized [[purodhas]] (purodhas in good organizational standing). The Purodha Pramukha is the ex-officio ''chairperson'' of the Purodha Board and also the ex-officio ''president'' of the  Central Committee (often referred to as the ''president'' of Ananda Marga Pracaraka Samgha). As president of the Central Committee, the Purodha Pramukha has the duty and authority to form the Central Executive.<ref>{{cite book | ref = harv | last = Anandamurti | first = Shrii Shrii | title = Caryacarya Part 1 | year = 1995 | ISBN 81-7252-028-X}}</ref> The chairperson of the Central Executive Commitee is the General Secretary of AMPS.

Similarly, the tattvikas, acaryas, and avadhutas of AMPS have their elected boards to manage "all rules and regulations, punishment, discipline, and everything else regarding" themselves (subject to the approval of the Purodha Pramukha).<ref>{{cite book | ref = harv | last = Anandamurti | first = Shrii Shrii | title = Caryacarya Part 1 | year = 1995 | ISBN 81-7252-028-X}}</ref>
