Learned counsel, on instructions from the petitioner, submits that instead of pressing the writ petition on merits at this stage, his client would be satisfied in case, the applications dated 12.4.2021 (Annexure P-20 and P-21) and dated 16.3.2022 (Annexure P-22) pending before the Deputy Registrar, and ASHWANI KUMAR 2022.08.05 14:08 I attest to the accuracy and integrity of this document

CWP No. 9127 of 2022 -2Inspector, Cooperative Socieities, Sangrur, be considered and decided expeditiously.

Notice of motion to that limited extent.

On the asking of the Court, Mr. Ayush Sarna, AAG, Punjab, accepts notice on behalf of the respondents and states that he has no objection to the prayer of the petitioner to that limited extent. In view of the agreed stand taken by both sides, but without adjudicating the controversy on merits, writ petition is disposed off with direction to respondent No.4- Deputy Registrar, Cooperative Socieities, Sangrur, to consider and decide the aforesaid applications (Annexures P-20, P21 and P-22), by passing reasoned order within a period of 06 (six) weeks from receipt of certified copy of this order.

Needless to say that, in case there is a failure on the part of competent authority, petitioner would be at liberty to move an appropriate application for revival of this writ petition. (MAHABIR SINGH SINDHU) JUDGE 1.8.2022 Ashwani Whether Speaking/Reasoned :
