Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the validity of the electoral roll prepared for the Godavari Khore Dudh Utpadak Sangh under the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, 1960. The Court held that the electoral roll must be finalized in accordance with the mandatory rules, and since the election process had commenced without proper adherence to these rules, the election was liable to be set aside. The appeal was allowed, and the election results were stayed pending compliance with the statutory requirements.
