JUDGMENT The petitioner apprehends that respondents would grant approval of bye-laws or amendment of bye- laws for different societies in a manner that the area of operation of those societies may encroach into the area of operation of the petitioner's society. This is not a matter that could be assumed since the registration of a co-operative society or amendment of bye-laws are matters governed by the KCS Act and Rules. Only when there is encroachment of area, even statutory proceedings at the instance of an aggrieved person could emanate. This writ petition is merely one filed anticipating arbitrariness. No other rival society is also made a respondent. I do not find any ground to issue any direction in favour of the petitioner. The writ petition fails. The same is accordingly dismissed.
