Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court examined the validity of a decision by the High Court that allowed writ petitions concerning the allotment of residential plots by a cooperative society under the U.P. Cooperative Societies Act, 1965. The case involved the interpretation of bye-laws which restricted allotment to members who did not own property in the society area and required the member or family to reside there. The Court upheld the High Court's judgment, emphasizing the importance of bye-law compliance and the society's rules in allotment decisions. The judgment clarified the legal principles governing cooperative society membership and property allotment.
