Sawant, J.1. Normally this Court does not interfere with orders such as the one impugned in the present case, more so in a writ petition. However, the point which falls for consideration in the present case is of a general public importance and unless it is decided proceedings under the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, 1960 (hereinafter referred to as the Act) may become a plaything in the hands of the parties interested in protracting them. The facts in the present case prove the apprehension.The petitioner is the Official Liquidator of a Co-operative Bank called Dadhich Sahakari Bank Limited. It was registered under the Act on September 17, 1980 and commenced work from November 3, 1980. Respondents Nos. 1 to 15 to the petition were the Directors of the Bank with Respondent No. 1 as the Chairman of the Board of Directors.
