S.R. Nayak, J. 1. This case has a chequered career. Initially, the 1st respondent herein, with an intention to establish a college to impart education leading to MBA course, made an application to the All India Council for Technical Education (for short, the Council), the appellant herein. Though approval was granted by the Council by its proceeding dated 26-12-1995, the Osmania University, refused to grant affiliation. The refusal to grant affiliation was not assailed by the 1st respondent. When the matter stood thus, the 1st respondent submitted an application on 20-6-1996 seeking permission of the Council for conversion of MBA course into PGDM course. That application was rejected by the Council by proceeding dated 16-8-1996. Again, the 1st respondent made an application on 27-8-1996 seeking permission of the Council to start PGDM course.

Court: Andhra Pradesh

Decided on: Mar-14-2002

Reported in: 2002(4)ALT136

ORDERB. Sudershan Reddy, J.1. These writ petitions may be disposed of by a common order, since the issues requiring adjudication and the questions that arise for consideration are similar in all the cases.2. What is otherwise an insignificant internal and routine correspondence between the Registrar of Co-operative Societies, Andhra Pradesh and the Managing Director, A.P. State Co-operative Bank Limited is blown out of proportion and sought to be impugned in this batch of writ petitions by the petitioners.3. The Governmental anxiety to exercise unlimited control and supervise all and every activity of the Co-operative Societies in the State of Andhra Pradesh as elsewhere in India led to unnecessary and avoidable complications. In the process significant contribution is made to docket explosion in this Court.4. The Government's attempt to shape the Co-operative structure into the Integrated Rural Development Programme by providing liberal financial assistance during the initial stage wh...
