IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH Civil Writ Petition No.8821 of 2010 DATE OF DECISION: May 13,2010 The Chandigarh Tenants Coopetative House Building First Society Ltd. .....Petitioner versus Union Territory of Chandigarh and others .....Respondents CORAM:- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE RAJAN GUPTA Present: Mr. K.K. Sharma, Advocate for the petitioner .. RAJAN GUPTA, J.: The petitioner-Society has prayed for issuance of writ in nature of mandamus to direct respondents No.2 and 3 to register the amendment made by the general body of the Society in the bye-laws. Learned counsel for the petitioner has submitted that in the general body meeting of the society, which was held on 26.8.2008, By-Law No.32 was amended to the extent that term of the Managing Committee would be three years. On 6th September 2008, the Society sent the request to Assistant Registrar, Cooperative Societies, U.T., Chandigarh, for registration of amendment, but no action followed. Thereafter, repeated requests were made, but to no avail. C.W.P. No.8821 of 2010 - 2 - I have heard learned counsel for the parties and perused the material on record. It is evident that pursuant to a resolution stated to have been passed in general body meeting of the Society, a request had been made by the Society to respondent No.2 to register the amendment. There is nothing on record to show that request of the Society has been turned down by the concerned authority. Learned counsel for the petitioner has not been able to make out a case for issuance of a writ in the nature of mandamus to direct the respondents to register the amendment in question. According to own case of the petitioner, the matter is still pending with the Registrar, Co-operative Societies. It is, therefore, inexplicable how the instant writ petition is maintainable. There is, thus, no ground to interfere in writ jurisdiction of this court. Dismissed. May 13, 2010 ( RAJAN GUPTA ) pc JUDGE 2
