Judgment :- Balakrishnan, J. The petitioner in O.P. No. 13397/96 is the appellant. Petition is a member of the Board of Directors of the Cannanore Co-operative Hospital Society. The first respondent issued a notice under S.32 of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act, 1969 (for short 'the act) to the President of the Co-operative Society to show cause why the Board of Directors should not be superseded. According to the petitioner, he was not given any notice under S.32(1) of the Act and as he is a member of the Board of Directors, he is entitled to get a notice regarding the supersession. Therefore, he filed the Original Petition praying that the first respondent shall be directed to issue notice to the petitioner stating the grounds on which the first respondent proposes to take action under S.32 of the Act. Learned single judge declined to grant the relief sought for and dismissed the Original Petition. This Writ Appeal is directed against that judgment. 2. We heard counsel for the appellant. It was contended before us mat under S.32(1) of the Act, the first respondent was bound to give notice under S.32(1) to each member of the Board of Directors of the Society. S.32(1) of the Act reads as follows: "32. Supersession of Committee - (1) If the Registrar is satisfied that the committee of any society persistently makes default or is negligent in the performance of the duties imposed on it by this Act or the rules or bye-laws or commits any act which is prejudicial to the interests of the society or wilfully disobeys or wilfully fails to comply with any lawful order or direction issued under this Act or the rules, the Registrar may, after giving the committee an opportunity to state its obligations, if any, by order in writing remove the committee and". On going by the section there is no provision to give separate notice to each member of the Board of Directors. Notice is to be given to the committee and it is the committee, which has to raise its objections, if any, against the proposed supersession. Admittedly, notice was issued to the President of the Committee. It is important to note that the petitioner has no case that the President is acting against the interest of either the petitioner or other members of the Society. Admittedly, notice was issued to the President of the Committee. It is important to note that the petitioner has no case that the President is acting against the interest of either the petitioner or other members of the Society. Normally, the President will bring it to the notice of the other members of the committee that had received a notice from the first respondent under S.32(1) of the Act and it is for the Committee to give suitable reply or objections to the proposed supersession. 3. Learned counsel for the appellant further contended that if any supersession order is passed pursuant to S.32(1) notice, the persons, who are members of the superseded Board of Directors, are entitled to re-elect as members of the Board of Directors for a period of one year as per R.44(k) of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Rules, 1969. It is contended that if any supersession order is passed, it would visit the petitioner with civil consequences and, therefore, he is entitled to get notice. Of course, petitioner has a right to get notice. But as he is a member of the Committee, the notice will be received through the President of the Committee. So long as there is no individual right of notice under S.32(1) of the Act, it cannot be said that the petitioner should be issued with separate notice. 4. Reliance was placed on the decision reported in S.1. Kapoor v. Jagmohan (AIR 1981 SC 136). That is a case where the Delhi Municipal Committee was superseded by an order passed under S.238(1) of the Punjab Municipal Act, Under S.238(1) of the Punjab Municipal Act no notice was required to be given to the Committee before any supersession order is passed by the State Government. The supersession order was challenged before the High Court and the High Court held that the Committee was not entitled to get any notice. But the Supreme Court held that there was violation of the principles of natural justice. It was held that: "On a consideration of the entire material placed before us we do not have any doubt that the New Delhi Municipal Committee was never put on notice of any action proposed to be taken under S.238 of the Punjab Municipal Act and no opportunity was given to the Municipal Committee to explain any fact or circumstances on the basis of which that action was proposed. If there was any correspondence between the New Delhi Municipal Committee and any other authority about the subject matter or any of the allegations, if information was given and gathered it was for entirely different purposes. In our view, the requirement of natural justice are met only if opportunity to represent is given in view of proposed action". That was a case, where no notice was issued to the Municipal Committee before the order of supersession was passed by the authority. Here notice is already given to the President of the Committee and the petitioner is aware of such notice. It is for the petitioner to raise his objections before the Committee and in the nature of the working of the Committee every proceedings are discussed in the Committee and the matter is decided in the form of resolution. The petitioner will get an opportunity to raise Ms objections before the Committee and the Committee has to deliberate on the issue and may submit reply in the matter. We do not find any merit in the Writ Appeal and it is dismissed.
