SANTHOSH KUMAR THIS WRIT PETITION (CIVIL) HAVING COME UP FOR ADMISSION ON 24/05/2010, THE COURT ON THE SAME DAY DELIVERED THE FOLLOWING: Kss K.SURENDRA MOHAN, J ........................................... WP(C).NO.15717 OF 2010 ............................................ DATED THIS THE 24TH DAY OF MAY, 2010 JUDGMENT The petitioner is the promoter who is trying to get a co-operative society registered for the development and welfare of small traders. He has submitted an application for registration of the society. The authorities found that there were certain defects in the application that had to be cured. After curing all the defects, the petitioner submitted the application. However, the same was not considered. Therefore, the petitioner approached the Lok Ayuktha requesting for the issue of appropriate directions. 2. While so, the petitioner was informed by the authorities that his application was forwarded to the Joint Registrar for registration. However, he has not received any communication thereafter. Therefore, he submitted Ext.P2 appeal. 3. In the above circumstances, as per Ext.P6 communication dated 2.2.2009, he was informed that his application, with the defects cured, had been forwarded to the third respondent. Though more than Wpc 15717/2010 2 one year has elapsed thereafter, the petitioner's society has not been registered. 4. The petitioner has already approached the second respondent with Ext.P2, seeking appropriate reliefs. Since Ext.P2 is pending consideration before the second respondent, the grievance of the petitioner can be considered and effective relief granted, by the said authority. In view of the above, I do not propose to go into the correctness of the contentions raised by the petitioner in this writ petition. It is enough that Ext.P3 is directed to be disposed of on an early date. 5. In the above circumstances, this writ petition is disposed of directing the second respondent to consider the appeal of the petitioner evidenced herein by Ext.P2, in accordance with law and to pass appropriate orders thereon, as expeditiously as possible and at any rate within a period of two months from the date of receipt of a copy of this judgment.
