Rajasthan High Court extends the time period for holding elections of various cooperative societies in the state until September 30

 

The Single Bench of the Rajasthan High Court, comprising Justice Dinesh Mehta in the case of State Of Rajasthan v. Kuldeep Singh has extended the time period for holding elections of various cooperative societies, specifically the Primary Agriculture Cooperative Societies (PACS) and Large Agro Multi-Purpose Societies (LAMPS), until September 30.

The present misc. application has been preferred by the State inter-alia seeking extension of time to hold elections of various cooperative societies (Primary Agriculture Cooperative Societies and Large Agro Multi-Purpose Societies (PACS & LAMPS)) in view of covid pandemic.

The Court in its previous order had directed the respondent - State to hold elections of the societies within a period of six months from the date of the order (15.03.2021).

The Additional Advocate General appearing for the State submited that the process of election of the societies has been started in all the Divisions and an action plan for constitution of ward in various divisions has been published, but for unavoidable circumstances, the same could not be completed. The Bench considered the submissions of the State and was satisfied that the State was prevented by justifiable reasons for not holding the elections within the stipulated period of six month from 15.03.2021 and extended period.

 

Therefore, the Court disposed of the application and held that since the process of elections has now been commenced, this Court deems it appropriate to extend the time period for holding elections upto 30.09.2023.
