5. The case of the petitioners is that the
petitioners have paid all membership/shareholders due to
respondent No.3-Society and attended all the annual
general body meetings, in spite of which respondent No.3-
Society has dropped the petitioners from the eligible
voters list and the provisions of Rule 13-D of KCS Rules,
1960 is overlooked by respondent No.3-Society.
6. The Co-Ordinate Bench of this Court in the case
of Sri. B Ganganna and others Vs. The State of
Karnataka, Department of Co Operation and others1
(B Ganganna) had given deliberate consideration to the
provisions of Rule 13-D of the KCS Rules, 1960 and
adjudication of dispute under Section 70 of the Karnataka
Co-Operative Societies Act, 1959 ('KCS Act, 1959' for
short). The Co-Ordinate Bench of this Court framed the
following points for consideration at paragraph No.9, which
reads as under:
ILR 2024 KAR 1901
- 58 -
NC: 2025:KHC:4881
"9. In the light of the contentions raised,
the following questions arise for consideration;
(a) Whether a writ petition under Article 226
of the Constitution of India is maintainable (before
the publication of the calendar of events under Rule
14) to redo the voters' list for violation of Rule 13-
D(2-A) of the Rules, 1960, in preparing the eligible
and ineligible voters' list?
(b) Whether the authority acting under
Section 70(2)(c) of the Act, 1959 can decide the
validity of the electoral roll vis-à-vis Rule 13-D(2-A)
of Rules, 1960?
(c) Whether the judgments of co-ordinate
Bench of this Court in Mohammad Beary and H.S.
Raju supra are per incurium and contrary to the law
in Election Commission of India through
Secretary supra."
(Emphasis supplied)
7. The Co-Ordinate Bench after giving deliberate
consideration to various judgments has held at paragraph
Nos.50 and 51 as under:
"50. For the reasons recorded, this Court
concludes as under:
(a) The preparation of electoral roll under Rule,
13-D(2-A) of the Karnataka Co-Operative
Rules 1960 is an integral part of the election
- 59 -
NC: 2025:KHC:4881
process in the context of a question whether
the writ petition is maintainable when the
challenge is laid to the procedure initiated for
preparing electoral roll.
(b) In a dispute under Section 70(2)(c) of the
Karnataka Co-operative Societies Act, 1959,
the Authority under Section 70 can decide the
question on the validity of electoral roll
prepared under the Rules, 1960 and its impact
on the election.
(c) The judgments in MOHAMMAD BEARY and
H.S. RAJU are not per incurium
(d) The writ petition under Article 226 of
Constitution of India to challenge the electoral
roll on the ground of non compliance of Rule
13-D(2-A) of Rules, may lie in exceptional
cases.
51. Based on the conclusions arrived at in
the facts and circumstances of the case, this Court
is of the view that no exceptional case is made out
in this petition to exercise Article 226 jurisdiction.
This Court has not expressed any opinion on the
eligible and ineligible voters' list prepared during the
pendency of the petition. Hence, the following:
ORDER
Writ petition is disposed of on the following
terms:
- 60 -
NC: 2025:KHC:4881

(iii) If such a dispute is raised, the Authority under
Section 70 of the Karnataka Co-operative
Societies Act, 1959, shall examine all
questions including the question relating to

and impact on the election to the Board of the
6th respondent - Bank.
(iv) Nothing is expressed on the merits of the
eligible and ineligible voters' list published
during the pendency of the petition and said
question kept open to be decided in the
dispute under Section 70 of the Karnataka Co-
operative Societies Act, 1959, if raised."
8. Section 70 of the KCS Act, 1959 reads as
under:
"70. Disputes which may be referred to
Registrar for decision.-(1) Notwithstanding
- 61 -
NC: 2025:KHC:4881
anything contained in any law for the time being in
force, if any dispute touching the constitution,

(b) between a member, past member or person
claiming through a member, past member or
deceased member and the society, its board
or any officer, agent or employee of the
society, or
(c) between the society or its board and any past
board, any officer, agent or employee, or any
past officer, past agent or past employee or
the nominee, heirs, or legal representatives of
any deceased officer, deceased agent, or

(d) between the society and any other co-
operative society, or a credit agency.
such dispute shall be referred to the Registrar for

- 62 -
NC: 2025:KHC:4881
(2) For the purposes of sub-section (1), the
following shall be deemed to be disputes touching
the constitution, management or the business of a

due to it from a member or the nominee, heirs
or legal representatives of a deceased
member, whether such debt or demand be
admitted or not;
(b) a claim by a surety against the principal

or demand due to it from the principal debtor,
as a result of the default of the principal
debtor whether such debt or demand is
admitted or not;
(c) any dispute arising in connection with the
election of a President, Vice-president or any
office-bearer or Member of board of the

(d) any dispute between a co-operative society

NC: 2025:KHC:4881
contained in the Industrial Disputes Act, 1947
(Central Act 14 of 1947);
(e) a claim by a co-operative society for any

operative society by a member, past member,

board, past or present whether such loss be
admitted or not.
(3) If any question arises whether a dispute
referred to the Registrar under this section is a
dispute touching the constitution, management or
the business of a co-operative society, the decision
thereon of the Registrar shall be final and shall not
be called in question in any court.
(4) xxxxx
(5) x x x x x"
9. The plain reading of Section 70 makes it clear
that an extensive and exhaustive mechanism is provided
under the aforesaid Section and the authority under
Section 70 can decide the question on the validity of
electoral roll prepared under the Rules, 1960 and its
- 64 -
NC: 2025:KHC:4881
impact on the elections, whether the petitioners are the
eligible voters and have paid membership dues, or annual
general body meetings are attended or availed the
minimum services are all questions of fact, which have to
be decided under Section 70 of the KCS Act, 1959 and the
writ petition under Article 226 of the Constitution of India
to challenge the electoral roll, the petitioners have not
made out any exceptional case in this petition to be
entertained and the decision of the Co-Ordinate Bench of
this Court in the case of B. Ganganna as stated supra is
squarely applicable to the present facts and the present
petition needs to be disposed of in similar terms and
hence, the following:
ORDER
i. The Returning Officer shall count the votes cast in
the elections held on 19.01.2025 to the Board of
Directors of respondent No.3-Society and shall
announce the results.
ii. Liberty is reserved to the petitioners or any
aggrieved party to raise objections to the validity
- 65 -
NC: 2025:KHC:4881
of the electoral by filing an Election Petition under
Section 70(2) of the KCS Act, 1959.
iii. If any dispute is raised under the provisions of
KCS Act, 1959 the authority under Section 70 of
the KCS Act, 1959 shall examine all questions
including the questions relating to the validity of
the eligible and ineligible voters list and impact of
the election to the Board of respondent No.3-
Society.
iv. All contentions of the parties are kept open.
v. This Court has not expressed merits and demerits
on eligibility or ineligibility of the voters list.
vi. With the said observations, the writ petition
stands disposed of.
