Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court upheld the High Court's dismissal of appeals regarding the Karnataka Cooperative Societies Act, 1959, specifically Section 108, which bars the revision petition due to limitation. The Court emphasized that the appellants, small farmers, failed to comply with the statutory timelines for challenging the Arbitrator's award and auction sale of their mortgaged property. The Court affirmed the lower courts' decisions, reinforcing the importance of adhering to procedural timelines in cooperative society disputes.
