     THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON
08.01.2021, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING:
 WP(C).No.515 OF 2021
                                          2




                               JUDGMENT

The grievance of the petitioner herein is that the

Joint Registrar has not acted in accordance with the

spirit of Ext.P12 judgment. This court by Ext.P12

judgment, had directed that an administrative

committee shall be appointed by the Joint Registrar of

Co-operative Societies, taking into the fact that the

society was an Employees Primary Credit Co-operative

Society with members as police officers and the

President of committee is the City Police Commissioner.

It was further added that if there were no other legal

impediments standing in the way, the proposal

suggested by the petitioner, to appoint the

administrative committee with the City Police

Commissioner and two other members will be

considered and a decision taken at the earliest.

Accordingly, Ext.P14 proceedings have been issued by

which an administrative committee was constituted WP(C).No.515 OF 2021

with the City Police Commissioner as the convener and

two other members as the members.

2. The Writ Petition is filed by the petitioner

contending that, the court intended that two members

of the erstwhile managing committee ought to have

been the members of the administrative committee.

On the other hand, the Joint Registrar has

recommended two persons of his choice as members.

3. I am not attracted by the above contention.

There is no such direction regarding the persons who

ought to be the members. It seems that Ext.P14 has

been passed strictly in accordance with the spirit of

Ext.P12. I find no reason to interfere. Writ Petition is

accordingly disposed of.
