What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

The Allahabad High Court reviewed registrar's division orders concerning cooperative societies. The court held that when a society divides under Section 126 of the U.P. Cooperative Societies Act, 1965, the original society remains a body corporate. The bench stated that the substantive character and legal identity of the society change, making the resulting entities altogether different corporate bodies, regardless of maintaining the old name or registration number.

Why it matters

Some supportBrind's analysis of the reports

The ruling mandates that upon division, delegates of the original society cease to be representatives under Rule 87(ix) of the U.P Cooperative Societies Rules, 1968. This also means they cannot continue on the Committee of Management of the District Cooperative Bank under Rule 453(1)(h). The High Court's findings bind the Government of Uttar Pradesh.

Litigation is underway in the Allahabad High Court, with the process eventually involving the Supreme Court and Parliament regarding the judicial backlog.
