Considering the grievances raised and as agreed to by the learned counsel appear ing for the parties, these two writ petitions are taken up together and are bein g disposed at the motion stage itself by the following order. Heard Mr DP Chaliha, learned senior counsel assisted by Mrs SM Choudhury in WP( C) No.2774/09 and Mr I. Rafique, learned counsel for the petitioner in WP(C) No. 2851/09. Also heard Ms HM Phukan, learned State counsel appearing for the respon dents in both the writ petitions. The petitioners’ case in brief is that the petitioner No. 1 in WP(C) No. 2774/09 is the Chairman of the Society and petitioner in WP(C) No. 2851/09 is an elect ed member of the Society. The elected .managing committee of the Society was con stituted and approved on 17.7.06 and the term of the managing committee is thus to be expired on 16.07.09. The committee had also taken steps to hold the electi on of the Society on 15.7.09 fixing the date for filing nomination paper on 6.7. 09. But, suddenly, on 29.6.09, the respondent No. 3 by order dated 29.6.09 dis solved the elected managing committee of the Society on the ground that the said Society has failed to hold the Annual General Meeting (AGM for short) within t he stipulated time as per Acts and Rules and further appointed one Senior Inspec tor, Hatsingimari to act as Executive Officer. It was also made clear by the res pondent No. 3 that the order dated 29.6.09 came to be passed pursuant to the ord er dated 17.6.2009 passed by this court in WP(C) No.2374/2009. However, on appe al, the respondent No. 2 by his order dated 2.7.09 has set aside the order dated 29.6.09 passed by respondent No. 3. But the process of election as notified vi de notice dated 24.6.09 became inoperative due to the order passed by the respon dent No. 3 dissolving the managing committee of the society, there was no time l eft for issuance of fresh notice for holding election within 16.7.09. Therefor e a representation dated 4.7.09 was submitted before the respondent No. 2 prayi ng therein for extension of term of the managing committee of the Society. Howev er, the same has evoked no response from the respondent No. 2. Hence the present petition with the aforesaid prayer. Ms HM Phukan, learned State counsel on instruction has submitted that the repre sentation dated 4.7.09 submitted by the petitioners’ Society could not be dispos ed of due to pendency of the instant writ petitions before this Court. In view of the submission made by the learned State counsel on the basis of the instruction so received, this writ petition is disposed of with a direction to the respondent No. 2 i.e. Registrar, Co-operative Society, Assam to dispose of t he representation dated 4.7.09 submitted by the petitioners’ Society by a speaki ng order considering the case of the petitioner as well as the order dated 29.6. 09 passed by the respondent No. 3 which was set aside by the respondent No. 2 be ing not justified. While passing the order, respondent No. 2 would take into co nsideration the provision of section 32(3) of the Assam C0-Operative Societies A ct, 1949.
