: AMIT BORKAR, J.

DATED : FEBRUARY 13, 2025 P.C.:

1.

Prima facie it appears that the Registrar has no power under Section 154B-27 of the Maharashtra Cooperative Societies Act, 1960 to direct the housing society to cancel membership. Hence, the order directing cancellation of such membership dated 19th September 2024 is stayed.

2.

Stand over to 20th February 2025.
