IN THE HIGH COURT OF JUDICATURE AT BOMBAY APPELLATE SIDE, BENCH AT AURANGABAD WRIT PETITION NO.4708 OF 2011. _______________________________________________________________ Office Notes, Office | Memoranda of Coram, | Court's or Judge's orders appearances, Court's | orders or directions | and Registrar's orders | _______________________|_______________________________________ CORAM : S.V.GANGAPURWALA,J. Date : 12.07.2011. 1. Heard. 2. The proceedings U/s 101 of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, are filed before the Respondent NO.3 against the present petitioners. The present petitioners raised a preliminary objection regarding the authority and the jurisdiction of the Respondent No.3 to entertain the proceedings U/s 101 of the said Act. The said objection is rejected by the Respondent No.3. Aggrieved thereby, the present Writ petition has been filed. 3. Mr.Irpatgire, learned counsel for the 2 petitioners submits that unless and until the powers are conferred by the State Government, the Deputy Registrar can not exercise the powers to entertain the proceedings U/s 101 of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act. In the present case no such notification has been issued. As such the proceedings before the Respondent No.3 would be without jurisdiction. The Respondent No.3 would not have any authority to decide the said proceedings. 4. The learned counsel further contends that the Respondent No.2 does not have the power to delegate the jurisdiction to the Respondent No3. 5. Apart from this aspect, no other point is pressed. 6. Mr.Choudhari, learned Asstt. Govt. Pleader has placed on record the notification and the Government order dated 14.9.2009, giving powers to the Deputy Registrar to deal with the matter U/s 101 of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act. The same is issued by the Department of Cooperation, Marketing and Textile and not by the Respondent No.2. It is not 3 disputed that the Respondent No.1 had the authority to issue such an order. 7. In view of the notification/Government order dated 14.9.2009, the objection of the petitioners do not survive. The Writ Petition as such is dismissed. However, there shall be no order as to costs.
