P.C. 1. The petitioner filed an application under Section 78 of the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, 1960 before the Registrar, who has rejected it. The petitioner made certain allegations, which, 2 according to the Registrar, were not proved by him. In any case, the power under Section 78 of the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act is an extra ordinary power and has to be exercised in exceptional circumstance. Since the Registrar did not find any extra ordinary circumstance, therefore, he refused to exercise the power. It is clear from the facts that this Court will not be in a position to come to conclusion whether the committee has to be removed or not. The writ petition is misconceived and is dismissed accordingly. The petitioner has some grievance about the election process and genuineness of the voter list. He may take appropriate remedy which may be available to him in accordance with law. [BILAL [BILAL [BILAL NAZKI, J] NAZKI, J] NAZKI, J] [S.S.SHINDE, [S.S.SHINDE, [S.S.SHINDE, J] J] J]
