All Writ Petition (Civil)

Order - Status 7: IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY CIVIL APPELLAE SIDE Writ Petition No. 4026 of 2007 Lasalgaon Vibhag Sahakari Kharedi Vikri Sangh Ltd. ..Petitioner vs. 1.The Asstt.Registrar Cooperative Societies & Ors. ..Respondents Shri A.S.Desai for petitioner. Shri P.P.Kakade, A.G.P. for respondent nos.1, 2 and 6. CORAM: S.C.DHARMADHIKARI J. 4th July, 2007 P.C. The petitioner society removed the Managing Committee members on the ground that they had incurred disqualification under Rule 58(2) of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Rules, 1961. That action was subject matter of challenge at the instance of the members and the Asstt.Registrar Cooperative Societies, Niphad, District Nashik has held that the decision of the society is without any authority of law in as much as the concerned persons have not been declared as defaulters. There is no adjudication in that behalf. That order of the Asstt.Registrar was challenged by the Society in Revision Petition No.89 of 2006 and the Divisional Joint Registrar having upheld the same by the impugned order, the petitioner society is before me invoking my writ jurisdiction. The only contention raised by Shri Desai is that the aggrieved persons have no right to approach the Asstt.Registrar in as much as they had the remedy of filing a Dispute under sec.91 before the competent Cooperative Court. That was the only remedy available to them in law. Asstt.Registrar had no jurisdiction to entertain their grievance. Be that as it may, on facts, it has been concurrently observed that the pre-requisite for initiating action has not been satisfied in the present case. In para 11 of the impugned order, the Joint Registrar has observed that C.E.O. of the society issued letter dated 22nd August, 2006 informing the concerned Managing Committee members that they have incurred disqualification under sec.73FF of Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, 1960. Hence, they cease to be the Managing Committee members. It has been observed by the Joint Registrar that powers under the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act of removal are vested only with the Registrar and unless action under sec.78 of the Act is initiated there is nothing like an automatic cessation. That no order under sec.78 has been passed is not disputed by Shri Desai. That is settled position in law and reference has been made by both the authorities to the decisions of this Court in that behalf. Having observed that mandatory pre-requisites are not satisfied for invoking the powers to disqualify the Managing Committee Members and to remove them, I do not wish to enter into any larger controversy. More so, when the factual position remains undisputed. As to whether the Asstt.Registrar would have jurisdiction to interfere with the action of disqualification or removal or not is a matter which can be gone into and decided in an appropriate case. That aspect is expressly left open. I am of the view that the findings of fact are not vitiated by any error apparent nor can be termed as perverse. Hence, the writ jurisdiction is not available to the petitioner. Petition is summarily dismissed. (S.C.DHARMADHIKARI J.)

In Writ Petition No. 246 of 2018, the petitioner No.1 is Pradeep Salunkhe who is the father of the victim girl in C.R.No.226 of 2016. Petitioner No.1 is the husband of petitioner No.2 Smt. Swapna Salunkhe who is the complainant in C.R.No. 226 of 2016. Petitioner No.3 and petitioner No.4 are the neighbours of Smt. Swapna Salunkhe.

This FIR has been lodged by the petitioner in Writ Petition No. 245 of 2018 against the petitioner Nos. 1 to 4 in Writ Petition No. 246 of 2018.

The accused persons in both the petitions are present before the Court. So also, the complainant in both the matters are present before the Court. Learned Counsel for the respondent/original complainant in both the petitions stated that the cases are cross cases and the matter has been amicably settled between the parties. They have stated that with the help of well wishers and common friends both parties have arrived at an amicable settlement and have resolved all the disputes between them and they have stated that they do not wish to pursue their complaints and the complaints may be quashed. Looking to the fact that the matter has been amicably settled between the parties and looking to the fact that the complainants in both the cases do not want to pursue the case, we are of the opinion that no purpose would be achieved by continuing with the prosecution in the said case. In this view of the matter, C.R.No. 226 of 2016 and C.R.No. 225 of 2016 and the proceedings relating thereto are quashed. The Writ Petitions are disposed of in above terms.

Heard learned counsel for the Petitioner, learned counsel for Respondent No.4 and learned AGP for the Respondent-State. The subject matter of controversy in the present petition concerns appointment/absorption of the Petitioner as a Shikshan Sevak in a vacant post in Education Department (Primary), Sangli Zilla Parishad or Sangli-Miraj-Kupwad Municipal Corporation or Vita Municipal Council, Tal. Vita, District : Sangli. It is not in dispute that on merits of her case, the Petitioner is entitled to be absorbed and accommodated as a Shikshan Sevak in a vacant post under the Zilla Parishads. In fact, the Director of Education (Primary), Pune Division by addressing a letter to the Additional Chief Secretary of School Education & Sports Department, Maharashtra State, Mantralaya, Mumbai dated 15.07.2019 has required suitable directions for appointment of the Petitioner as a Shikshan Sevak. On these facts, the petition can be conveniently disposed of by directing the Respondents to issue appropriate directions for absorption of the Petitioner in the school maintained by the concerned Zilla Parishads. The Court is informed that there are adequate number of vacancies in that behalf. The Petitioner is a Scheduled Caste candidate and according to the respective roasters, there is a scope for engagement of the Petitioner as a Shikshan Sevak under the respective Zilla Parishads. The petition is accordingly disposed of by directing the Respondents to accommodate or absorb the Petitioner as a Shikshan Sevak in any suitable vacant post in the Education Department (Primary), Sangli Zilla Parishad or Sangli-Miraj-Kupwad Municipal Corporation or Vita Municipal Council, Sangli. To enable the Petitioner's transfer from Zilla Parishad, Alibaug to any of these places, suitable orders shall be issued by Respondent No.4-Education Ofcer (Primary), Zilla Parishad, Raigad-Alibaug within a period of three weeks from today. The petition is disposed of in the above terms. (SURENDRA P. TAVADE, J) (S.C. GUPTE, J.)
