Kerala High Court recently dismissed a clutch of appeals filed by various dissolved district cooperative bank managing committee members against a single judge’s interim order declining the plea for directive for restoration of the committees, reports Hindu.
The committees had stopped functioning following the promulgation of the Kerala Cooperative Societies Amendment Ordinance which had restructured the managing committees of the District Cooperative Banks, with the voting right membership being limited to primary Agricultural Credit Societies and Urban Cooperative Banks.
The administrators had been appointed to run these district cooperative banks as per the amendment ordinance.
The Single Judge had refused to give a directive for restoring the dissolved committees saying the administrators had already taken over.
