Since the order is passed by the Registrar, the remedy open to the petitioner is to approach the Government under Section 83 (2) of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act. Be that as it may, since the petitioner has filed Ext.P9 representation before the 3rd respondent praying for a promotion, in the next available vacancy, there will be a direction to the 3rd respondent to look into Ext.P9, and take appropriate action in accordance with law, if not already taken, expeditiously. The writ petition is disposed of as above. KURIAN JOSEPH, JUDGE vps KURIAN JOSEPH, JUDGE OP NO.13345/03 JUDGMENT 22nd NOVEMBER, 2006
