Registrar Coop. Societies Haryana & Ors vs Israil Khan & Ors

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of recovery of unauthorized emoluments paid to employees of co-operative societies under the Haryana Co-operative Societies Act. The Court upheld the High Court's finding that the Managing Committee's resolution to extend regular pay scales was illegal, as it contravened Rule 9 of the Primary Co-operative Credit & Service Society Staff Service Rules, 1992. However, the Court did not endorse the recovery of excess payments made to employees, affirming the High Court's decision to refrain from ordering such recovery.
