State Of Haryana – Respondent
ORDER
Order dated 7-2-1996 is recalled. We have heard Shri Maheshwari, learned counsel for the appellant.
2. The only question is: whether the appellant as President of the Sardarajanti Kalan Co-operative Agricultural Service Society along with other two persons, namely, the Secretary and Treasurer, is liable to account for a sum of Rs. 65,726,59. It is an admitted position that Tara Chand is Ex-Secretary, the appellant, the Ex-President and Sardara Singh is the Ex-Cashier. The dispute arose from award proceedings under the Haryana Cooperative Societies Act. On a reference made to the Registrar, the matter was referred to the concerned officer for enquiry and necessary action. On the basis thereof, after notice to the parties and conduct of the due enquiry, the award came to be passed wherein it was held that the three officers, namely, the appellant as President, Tara Chand as Secretary and Sardara Singh as Cashier were jointly and individually responsible for the unaccounted sum of Rs. 65,726.59. The Secretary and the Cashier had allowed the award to become final. The appellant carried the matter in appeal, which was confirmed; the writ petition, filed consequently, stood dismissed
