The Tumkur Grain Merchants v. the State of Karnataka
Case brief
What is this about?
Co-operative law — Karnataka Cooperative Societies Act, 1959, Section 64 — enquiry-initiation order dated 02.05.2023 (Annexure-H, No. RCS/UBC-1/SEC.64/2022-23) by Registrar of Co-operative Societies — writ petition under Articles 226/227 by co-operative bank seeking quashing — held premature; petitioner free to approach competent authority upon any order in the enquiry — petition dismissed (E.S. Indiresh, J.).
What did the court decide?
Since the impugned order merely initiates a Section 64 enquiry, it is open to the petitioner to approach the competent authority in the event it suffers any order in those proceedings; the challenge was therefore not entertained at this stage. ¶34
