The petitioner has neither pleaded, urged nor demonstrated before this court that the 1st respondent-Co-operative Society is an agency or instrumentality of the State within the meaning of Article 12 of the Constitution of India. The resolutions of the Managing Committee have no public law component. The exercise of power of the Managing Committee of the 1st respondent-Co- operative Society is not the exercise of any statutory power nor do the internal disputes of the 1st respondent-Society warrant scrutiny and adjudication by this Court under Article 226 of the Constitution of India. In the above circumstances, the writ petition is seen to be patently misconceived and is accordingly dismissed. Needless to state that any other remedies available to the petitioner, in respect of the grievance urged herein, could be pursued in accordance with law. No costs. _______________________ GODA RAGHURAM, J Dt. 17-08-2004 Pvks/* To 1 The Managing Director, the Nandanam Farmers Service Cooperative Society Ltd., Nandanam, Wardhannapet Village & Mandal Warangal District 2 The President, Managing Committee of the Nandanam Farmers Service Cooperative Society Ltd.
