Mr. Rameshwar Singh Malik, J.: (Oral) - Instant writ petition is directed against the order dated 18.05.2011 (Annexure P-23) passed by the Financial Commissioner and Principal Secretary to Govt. of Haryana, Cooperation Department, whereby the revision petition filed by the petitioner-Society was dismissed and the order dated 21.12.2006 (Annexure P-21) passed by Registrar, Cooperative Societies, Haryana was upheld, holding respondent No.3 eligible to be a member of the petitioner- Society.

2. Briefly put, facts necessary for disposal of the present writ petition are that respondent No.3 submitted an application to the petitioner-Society in January, 2003 for his enrollment as member of the petitioner-Society. The Society vide letter dated 03.07.2003 (Annexure P-1) asked respondent No.3 to supply the requisite documents about his eligibility for becoming member of the petitioner-Society, but when respondent No.3 did not supply the requisite documents in response to communication dated 03.07.2003 (Annexure P-1), petitioner-Society wrote another letter dated 29.10.2003 (Annexure P-2). Respondent No.3 vide his letter dated 06.11.2003 (Annexure P-3) supplied the documents along with his affidavit. However, a combined reading of Annexures P-3 and affidavit of respondent No.3, would show that he did not establish his eligibility for membership of the petitioner-Society. It is pertinent to note here that vide communication dated 17.11.2003 (Annexure P-5), Manager of the petitioner-Society informed respondent No.3 that documents sent by him were in order but he did not refer to the eligibility of respondent No.3 for becoming member of the petitioner-Society, because of which this communication dated 17.11.2003 (Annexure P-5) would be of no consequence.

3. On close scrutiny of the documents supplied by respondent No.3, petitioner-Society found that respondent No.3 was not fulfilling the eligibility criteria for becoming member of the petitioner-Society. Vide communication dated 27.10.2004 (Annexure P-6), respondent No.3 was asked to show his eligibility for membership of the petitioner-Society. This letter dated 27.10.2004 (Annexure P-6) was replied by respondent No.3 vide his letter dated 31.10.2004 (Annexure P-7). Matter remained pending consideration before the petitioner- Society regarding the eligibility of respondent No.3 for becoming member of the petitioner-Society. Both the parties have been corresponding with each other, which is clear from different communications contained in Annexure P-8 to Annexure P-13.

4. Finally, case of respondent No.3 regarding his eligibility for membership of the petitioner-Society was considered by the Managing Committee of the petitioner-Society in its meeting held on 12.06.2005. Clarification from Assistant Registrar, Cooperative Societies, Gurgaon was also sought in this regard. Accordingly, respondent No.3 was informed vide letter dated 11.09.2005 (Annexure P-14) that despite repeated requests and reminders, he has not furnished the requisite documents, so as to establish his eligibility for becoming member of the petitioner-Society.

5. When no response was received from respondent No.3, he was again informed vide letter dated 06.10.2005 (Annexure P-15). However, instead of replying to the abovesaid communications dated 11.09.2005 and 06.10.2005 to the petitioner-Society, respondent No.3 filed his appeal before the Registrar, Cooperative Societies, Haryana-respondent No.2 by way of Annexure P-16. Petitioner-Society filed its reply vide Annexure P-18 and respondent No.3 filed his rejoinder (Annexure P-19). Thereafter, petitioner-Society filed its rejoinder to the replication of respondent No.3 vide Annexure P-20.
