Satyabrata Sinha, C.J.1. Having regard to the fact that no notification in terms of Section 10(1) of the Contract Labour (Regulations and Abolition) Act, 1970, has been issued, and also the fact that the members of the appellant-Union have failed to prove by adducing cogent evidence that the respondent No.2-Board was, in pith and substance, their employer, we are of the opinion that the question of granting any relief in their favour for absorption in the Board's service does not arise having regard to the decision of the apex Court in GAYMON INDIA LTD v. UNION OF INDIA, AIR 1974 SC 760. Further more, the continuation in service for a number of years does not change the status of person in view of the decision in STATE OF M.P. AND ORS. VS. DHARAM BIR, : [1998]3SCR511 . 2. For the afore-mentioned reasons, we dismiss the writ appeal. No costs....

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Feb-05-2001

Reported in: 2001(2)ALT28

Satyabrata Sinha, C.J.1. Having heard the learned Counsel for the parties, we are of the opinion that the purported order passed by the General Manager of the Financing Bank deputing the fifth respondent as the Secretary in the first respondent-Bank cannot be sustained since it has not been passed by the Registrar of the Co-operative Societies. The Cooperative Societies, in the State of Andhra Pradesh, are governed by a statute, viz., A.P. Co-operative Societies Act, 1964, and the statutory functionaries must act within the four corners of the statute. If there does not exist any provisions in the statute, then the Financing Bank can depute any other person at the request of another Cooperative Society. We are, therefore, of the opinion that the order appointing the fifth respondent as the Secretary of first respondent-Bank cannot be sustained.2. For the aforementioned reasons, the impugned order under appeal passed by the learned Single Judge cannot be sustained. It is accordingly set...
