IN THE HIGH COURT OF PUNJAB AND HARYANA AT CHANDIGARH. C.W.P. No. 11105 of 2009 DATE OF DECISION : 28.07.2009 Suresh Chand .... PETITIONER Versus Registrar, Cooperative Societies, Haryana and another ..... RESPONDENTS CORAM :- HON'BLE MR. JUSTICE SATISH KUMAR MITTAL Present: Mr. S.S. Dalal, Advocate, for the petitioner. * * * SATISH KUMAR MITTAL , J. ( Oral ) The petitioner is working as Clerk in Gurwari Primary Agriculture Cooperative Society Ltd., Gurwari, District Faridabad. He has filed the instant petition for issuing direction to quash the communication dated 20.7.1999 (Annexure P-3), whereby the Registrar, Cooperative Societies, Haryana, on re-consideration of the matter, has decided to keep in abeyance the earlier instructions dated 26.2.2009 (Annexure P-1). According to those instructions, the orders issued vide memo dated 10.11.2005 were withdrawn and permission was granted to all the Managing Directors of Central Cooperative Bank Limited to promote the Clerks/Salesmen of the Primary Agricultural Cooperative Societies, who are on the panel, to the posts of B Grade Secretaries. The petitioner is also one CWP No. 11105 of 2009 -2- of the candidates who is seeking promotion to the post of B Grade Secretary. Counsel for the petitioner contends that the Registrar, Cooperative Societies has no power to pass the impugned order/ communication. I do not agree with the contention of learned counsel. If the Registrar had the powers to issue the earlier instructions dated 26.2.2009 (Annexure P-1), then he has the power to withdraw the same, which he has done by passing the impugned order/communication. As far as the petitioner is concerned, no prejudice is caused to him. As and when any promotion to the post of B Grade Secretary is made, his claim will be considered. Dismissed.
