The petition has been filed to challenge the order passed u/s 88 of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act holding the petitioners guilty of certain acts. A revision application has been preferred before the State u/s 154 of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act. Each of the petitioners is liable to pay a certain amount under the impugned order. 2. The grievance of the petitioners is that neither the revision nor the stay application filed by the petitioners is being heard by the State and therefore grave prejudice has been caused to the petitioners. 3. In my view, the petition can be disposed of by : 2 : passing the following order: i) The stay application filed alongwith the revision before the State shall be disposed of within six weeks from today on condition that the petitioners deposit the amounts which they are required to pay under the impugned order within two weeks from today. This amount shall be deposited without prejudice to the rights and contentions of the petitioners in the revision application. ii) The impugned order is stayed on the aforesaid condition and for a further period of two weeks from the date of communication of the order on the stay application. 4. Writ petition is disposed of accordingly.
