5. The case of the petitioners is that the

of Rule 13-D of KCS Rules, 1960 is overlooked by the
Societies.

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
ILR 2024 KAR 1901
- 85 -
NC: 2025:KHC:3191
following points for consideration at paragraph No.9, which
reads as under:
"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."

concludes as under:
- 86 -
NC: 2025:KHC:3191
(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
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.

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

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.
