High court upholds removal of cooperative society governing bodies by no-confidence motion

The High Court ruled that cooperative society governing bodies can be removed by a no-confidence motion at a general body meeting. The court upheld a previous government amendment to the Cooperative Societies Act, which allows for no-confidence motions to be presented and passed at general meetings. This decision overturned a former bank president's challenge. The High Court stated that the government has the authority to frame rules under the Cooperative Act, and the provision allowing general bodies to remove elected committees is valid.
