SC norms on axing co-op body members
The Supreme Court laid down a slew of guidelines on removal of an officebearer in a cooperative society , including that a motion of no-confidence against a person “shall“ be moved only after two years of his assuming the office. The guidelines were issued in a verdict by which the SC dismissed an appeal of Vipulbhai M Chaudhary , ex-chairman of the Gujarat Cooperative Milk Marketing Federation that markets its products under the Amul brand, against his ouster from the office after a no confidence motion was passed against him. The SC bench upheld the decision of the Gujarat HC and issued guidelines to regulate removal of members from cooperative societies.
