Annexure-F, Annexure-G. Annexure-I 1 and annexure-I as the simple copies of the same have been produced from the compilation of Special Civil Application no. 18986 of 2006 and since the said proceedings were carried out by and between and against the Society; (F) That this Hon ble Court will be pleased to pass such and further order as the nature and circumstances of the case may require. ( 3 ) IT is an accepted fact that the show- cause notice issued on 9. 7. 2004/12. 7. 2004 by the respondent authority is under Section 81 of The Gujarat Cooperative Societies act, 1961 (the Act) seeking explanation as to why the Managing Committee of the society should not be superseded and why an Administrator be not appointed. ( 4 ) IN earlier round of litigation it transpires that the Society was the entity who had challenged the show-cause notice. Vide order dated 5. 12. 2006 the petition moved by the Society was not entertained by this Court in light of the clear provisions of Section 81 of the Act. ( 5 ) ON going through the impugned notice it is apparent that though various instances of defaults by different members of the executive Committee have been alleged in the show-cause notice the respondent authority has at the end of the notice categorically stated that the Society is called upon to represent its case along with supporting evidence. The notice is admittedly issued to the Chairman/secretary of the society. The notice is admittedly issued to the Chairman/secretary of the society. ( 6 ) WHEN the attention of the learned assistant Government Pleader was invited to this fact situation it was stated, under instructions, that the practice and procedure adopted by the respondent authority is to obtain a signature from the person on whom the notice is served to the effect that the said person shall inform all other members of the Executive Committee about the proposed action u/s. 81 of the act. ( 7 ) IN the first instance, regardless of whether such practice and procedure is adopted, it is apparent that in exercise of powers u/s. 81 of the Act, it is the member viz. ,each individual member of the executive Committee who is to be removed by superseding the committee and appointing an Administrator. The defaults stipulated in clauses (a) and (b) of sub-section (1) of Section 81 of the Act relate to acts of mis-management, negligence etc. , and are attributable to the Managing committee of the Society and not to the society itself. In the circumstances merely by serving notice on one of the office bearers of the Society it cannot be 5 stated that the service has been effected qua all the members of the Managing committee. ( 8 ) THE nature of defaults is such that a particular default may be attributable to only one or other member and not necessarily all the members. Once the provisions stipulate removal of the member concerned it is necessary and incumbent on the respondent is authority to issue individual notice to each member of the Managing Committee and a common notice served on one of the office bearers cannot satisfy the requirement in law of effecting service of individual notice. MI The reason is not far to seek. Every individual member may have a different and independent explanation qua the default alleged and there cannot be any common notice. The consequence is removal of the member concerned and in the circumstances, each one of the member is required to be issued an independent notice, independent of each other and independent of the Society. ( 9 ) THE impugned notice does not comply with the requirements stipulated by the statute and hence is quashed and set aside leaving it open to the authority to initiate fresh action in accordance with law if the circumstances so warrant. ( 9 ) THE impugned notice does not comply with the requirements stipulated by the statute and hence is quashed and set aside leaving it open to the authority to initiate fresh action in accordance with law if the circumstances so warrant. As a consequence all the consequential actions shall be treated as invalid and any orders made pursuant to the impugned notices shall not remain in operation. ( 10 ) THE petitions are allowed accordingly in the aforesaid terms. Rule made absolute. Registry to place copy of this judgment in all connected matters. Petitions allowed.
