Ext.P1 is an order issued purporting to be under Section 65 of the Co-operative Societies Act. Ext.P1 is also consequential to Ext.P3. There is no dispute that there is no Officer named in Ext.P1 as the Enquiry Officer. In such circumstances, learned counsel is correct in contending that Ext.P1 cannot be sustained. Ext.P1 is quashed. Ext.P3 is not sustainable. Accordingly Ext.P3 is also quashed. The Writ Petition is allowed as above. K. M. JOSEPH, JUDGE kbk.
