JUDGMENT
Petitioner has approached this court seeking a direction to
the respondents to conduct election before the expiry of the
period stipulated in Ext.P2. A direction is also sought to conduct
election before 21/11/2007, the extended period of second
respondent. According to the petitioner who is stated to be a
member of the second respondent bank, proceedings under
Section 33 of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act was initiated
and part time administrator was appointed on 22/11/2006 for a
period of six months. By Ext.P2 the period of the administrator
was extended for another six months. The period under Ext.P2
will expire on 21/11/2007 and therefore petitioner prays that
election may be held before 21/11/2007.
Today, when the matter came up, learned Government
Pleader submits that an order under Section 71 has been passed
on 22/10/2007 by which the society itself has been liquidated and
liquidator has taken charge. In the light of this development,
WPC No.30443/07 2
I feel that petitioner may not be entitled to seek the relief sought
for as long as the order of liquidation stands. The writ petition is
disposed of directing the first respondent to serve a copy of the
order passed under Section 71 and the order passed appointing
the liquidator to the petitioner within a period of one week from
the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment. I am not
pronouncing on the contentions of the petitioner in view of the
order passed under Section 71 and I leave those contentions
open.
