Judgment text excerpt

The Supreme Court addressed the issue of whether a Chairperson of a cooperative society can be removed by a motion of no confidence in the absence of specific provisions in the Act, Rules, or Bye-laws. The Court held that the principles of democratic member control and autonomy in cooperatives, as outlined in the International Cooperative Alliance Statement, support the notion that members have the right to remove elected representatives. Consequently, the appeal was dismissed, affirming the validity of the no confidence motion against the appellant.
