Counsel for the Petitioners: MR.Y.VENKAT SASTRY Counsel for the Respondent Nos.1 to 3: GP FOR INDUSTRIES & COMMERCE Counsel for the Respondent No.4: Mr. T.V.S. Prabhakara Rao. The Court made the following: ORDER: This writ petition is filed seeking to declare the action of the respondents in deleting the names of the petitioners from the membership of Mori Weavers Co-operative Society Ltd., Sakhinetipalli Mandal, East Godavari District under the impugned notice dated -07-1997 as illegal and arbitrary. The petitioners claim to be registered members of Mori Handloom Weavers Co- operative Society Limited of Sakhinetipalli Mandal, East Godavari District. It is stated that they use to collect the yarn from the said Society, weave the cloth on the looms and return the finished goods to it. It is further stated that on the instructions of the respondents 1 and 3, the 2nd respondent herein has deputed a committee to inspect and submit report with regard to members of the Society, who have handloom weaving as their profession, and their owning looms. In pursuance of the said report, the 2nd respondent issued notices to the petitioners under Section 21(3) and Rule 20 of the A.P. Co-operative Societies Act, 1964 on the ground that the petitioners are not qualified to continue as members of the Society and requested them to show cause why their membership should not be removed from the Society. Questioning the said impugned notices, the petitioners filed the present writ petition. This Court, while admitting the writ petition in the year 1997, granted interim direction by order, dated 22.10.1997 and it is still in operation. A counter affidavit is filed by the respondents denying the allegations of the petitioners. The relevant portion of the same reads as under. “ It is submitted that the various schemes formulated and initiated by the Government for the benefit of the Handloom Weavers, are being implemented through the Handlooms Weavers Co-operative Societies. The implementation of schemes involves such of inflow of Governmental funds into the coffers of the societies and as such implementation shall be free of misuse and misapplication. To obviate such occurrence, it was proposed to undertake a survey regarding the genuineness of the membership, looms etc., connected with the working of societies. To establish the genuineness or otherwise of the memberships and looms, a survey has been conducted with the involvement of governmental machinery with the relevant provisions of the A.P.C.S. Act 7 of 1964 and the rules framed thereunder. The result filtered out from the above exercise was that majority of the members do not own a loom and are not depending on weaving, which led to the issuance of a notice under the statute to streamline the implementation of the Governmental Schemes against misuse and misapplication of funds. The petitioners challenged the said notice in question wherein their removal from membership of the society is contemplated in accordance with the provisions of the statute. It is submitted that the notice in question was issued to the petitioners giving them an opportunity to defend themselves against the proposed action, to meet the ends of natural justice. Unless final orders are passed there does not arise any cause of action for the petitioners in question the same in a Court of law.” However, when the matter is taken up today for hearing, both the counsel agreed to dispose of the writ petition with a direction to the petitioners to submit their explanations to the impugned show cause notice. Inasmuch as the impugned notice, which was issued to the petitioners, is only a show cause notice and having regard to the fact that both the counsel agreed to dispose of the writ petition, without going into the merits of the matter, I deem it appropriate to dispose of the writ petition directing the petitioners to submit their explanations to the impugned show cause notice putting forth all their objections and on submitting such explanations the respondents shall consider the same and pass appropriate orders thereon in accordance with law.
