Mudahadadi Milk Producers v. State of Karnataka

What is this about?
The Single Judge held that Section 63's restriction limiting Cooperative Societies to a ten-person panel for auditor selection is arbitrary, violates Article 14 and Article 243ZM(3) of the Constitution, and is unconstitutional, rendering subsequent communications setting three-person panels illegal.
What did the court decide?
The second proviso to Section 63(1) is declared unconstitutional and void. Impugned communications restricting selection to three names are set aside.
