By-law No. 40 Karnataka Co-operative Rules | Common Electorate for A & B Class Members Mandatory, Delayed Revision Quashed : Karnataka HC

Karnataka High Court upholds the validity of By-law No. 40 under the Karnataka Co-operative Rules, mandating a common electorate for A and B class members in secondary co-operative societies. The court quashed a 27-year delayed revision, directed immediate vote counting under amended by-laws, and held the Administrator's power to withdraw litigation as ultra vires, reinforcing judicial oversight in co-operative governance.
