Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the issue of illegal allotment of land by the N.G.E.F. Employees House Building Cooperative Society under the Karnataka Cooperative Societies Act, 1959. The Court held that the allotment of site No. 509 was invalid as it was not part of the approved plan and involved fraudulent misrepresentation of the sale price. The Court upheld the findings of the Joint Registrar, emphasizing the need for transparency and accountability in cooperative societies, and directed recovery of the amount from the office bearers involved in the illegal transaction.
