Judgment
VITTHAL KISAN LANDGE AND OTHERS VERSUS THE STATE OF MAHARASHTRA THROUGH PRINCIPAL SECRETARY AND OTHERS ... Advocate for the Petitioners : Shri Bora Satyajit S. AGP for the Respondents/State : Shri A.R. Kale ... CORAM : RAVINDRA V. GHUGE ARUN R. PEDNEKER, JJ. & DATE :- 29th August, 2022 Per Court :-
The petitioners have put forth prayer clause (b) as under:-
b) That, by issuing writ, order or direction under Article 226 of the Constitution of India, the respondent No.2 Divisional Joint Registrar, Cooperative Societies, Nashik, may kindly be directed to decide the Revision No.196/2016 within period of three months.
The grievance of the petitioners is that their pending Revision No.196/2016 filed under Section 154 of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, 1960 is pending for the last six years. After the petitioners received the notice dated *2* 60wp8852o22
19.01.2016 listing the matter for hearing on 09.02.2016 (wrongly typed as 2015), no hearing has taken place and the petitioners are informed that the file is missing.
Considering the above and the order that we are passing, we are not issuing notice to respondent Nos.4, 5 and 6.
