CIRCULARS OF REGISTRAR OF COOPERATIVE SOCIETIES 1989

No.G. 56583/87.                    

Office of the Registrar of Co-operative Societies,

                                             Trivandrum, 19-1-1989



CIRCULAR No. 3/89



Sub:   Kerala Labour welfare Fund Act 1975 (Act 11 of 1977) - Applications of the provisions to Co-operative Societies-Clarifications issued.

Ref:   Government Letter No. 13973/C2/88/Co-op. Dated 11-11-1988.



Clarification has been sought for from this office by certain societies whether the provisions of the Kerala Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1975 (Act 11 of 1977) are applicable to the Co-operative Societies registered under the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act, 1969 and whether the societies and their employees are liable to make contribution to the Labour Welfare Fund  constituted under Act 11 of 1977 in the light of the fact that a separate fund, viz, Kerala Co-operative Employees Welfare Fund has been set up as per G.O.Rt. 383/86/Co-op. Dated 30-9-86 from out of the contributions from employees of Co-operative societies as well as the employer societies.  This matter has been referred to Government for clarifications and the Government in their letter referred to above have informed as follows:



According to section 2 (f) (5) of the Kerala Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1975, an establishment including a society registered under the Societies Registration Act, 1860 (Central Act 22 of 1860) which employs on any working day during the preceding 12 months more than 20 persons will come under the purview of the Kerala Labour Welfare Fund Act.  Therefore the question whether the Co-operative Societies are commercial establishments or not, is irrelevant regarding the applicability of the provision of the Act 11 of 1977 to the Co-operative Societies and their employees.  Moreover the Kerala Labour Welfare Fund and the Kerala Co-operative Employees Fund are entirely different since the Kerala Labour Welfare Fund provides Welfare Schemes for the entire labourers of the State.



In the above circumstances, it is hereby clarified that the provisions of the Kerala Labour Welfare Fund Act, 1975 (Act 11 of 1977) are applicable to the Co-operative Societies registered and governed by the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act, 1969 and, therefore, the societies and their employees are bound to contribute their respective shares to the Fund created under the former Act.



The Societies are requested  to take action on the matter on the lines indicated above.

Office of the Registrar of Co-operative Societies

                                              Trivandrum, 23-1-89

CIRCULAR No. 5/89

Sub:   Exemption under rule 185 (2) of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Rules for the purpose of promotion-date of effect of relaxation.

Ref:   Judgement dated 3-12-87 in O. P. No. 8947/85.



Rule 185 (2) of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Rules empowers the Managing Committee of a society to relax the qualifications of an employee for purposes of promotion in deserving cases with the prior Approval of the Registrar and for reasons to be recorded in writing.



The Hon’ble High Court as per judgement dated 3-12-87, in O.P.No. 8847/85 between S.Gopakumar and Registrar of Co-operative Societies, held that as prior approval of the Registrar of Co-operative Societies is a condition precedent for giving relaxation from qualification under Rule 185 (2), the relaxation will operate only from the date of order of Registrar approving such relaxation unless the committee fixes a prior date from which the relaxation will operate and that it is approved by the Registrar.



The Joint Registrars, while exercising powers under Rule 185 (2) are requested to adhere to the observations of the court scrupulously. It should also be ensured that the Co-operative Institutions implement the orders issued by competent authority under Rule 185 (2)  according to the above principle.

CIRCULAR No. 11/89



Sub:   Audit-Simplification of Audit procedure-guidelines-issued.



In the conference of Department Officers held on 25-6-1988 and 28-6-1988 the question of arrears in audit came up for discussion.  It was suggested that simplification of Audit procedure would be a remedy to ease the situation.  Accordingly a committee was constituted vide Registrar’s proceedings ADL (2) 37721/88 dated, 16-7-1988 for making suggestions for simplification of audit procedure.  The Committee submitted  its report containing certain recommendations. The report was studied and in the light of those recommendations the following guidelines are issued.

1.       During the course of audit of a Co-op. Society if the Auditor finds that the balances in the statements for shares, loans and deposits including chitty deposits (both debtor and creditor) actually agree with the personal ledger balances and their total agree with the balances in the general ledger cross checking of entries in the Day Book with personal ledger/chitty Day book with   Chitty parade may be avoided by resorting to random checking only.  However such random checking should cover at least 3 month’s period.  In such cases the Auditor should obtain a certificate from the Chief Executive of the Society or from the head of the Internal Auditors (if the system of internal audit has been introduced) to the effect that the entire entries in the concerned ledgers have been checked and found that the balances in the ledgers are correct and that the balances in the schedules, agree with the ledger balances.

2.       In the case of consumer societies where a satisfactory Double compartmental system subjected to effective internal audit is followed and where quarterly stock verification is done systematically, the Auditor need not check all the sales bills.  The Auditor can limit his work to test check and checking sales totals in the sales Abstract Register with Day Book and Liability Register.  But the entries regarding transfer of goods from godown or otherwise at resale value should be checked completely.

3.       In school stores and societies having A.R.Ds etc. which  sell  goods / articles on fixed rates of commission, if the gross income received on account of fixed rate of commission agrees with the eligible commission  the accounts relating to stock and sales may be test checked.

4.       In cases of major irregularities noticed while resorting to any of the above methods, the Auditors shall check all accounts thoroughly.

5.       Test audit whenever done should be done in the presence of the Auditor who did it.

6.       The Assistant Registrars (Audit) have to assess in advance the exact volume of work in each of the societies in their circles and prepare Audit Programmes in such a manner that the audits of societies having very little transactions (like school stores, dormant societies. Etc.) and those having large volume of business are included in the programme of each month wherever possible.  The present practice of completing the audits of societies having low volume of business first in preference to societies having fairly good volume of business should be stopped.  The Audit Programmes should be got chalked out by the Assistant Registrars/Deputy Registrars (Audit)  based on the norms fixed by the Registrar and audits done by the Auditors should be watched very closely.  The norms fixed basically for determining the man days required for the completion of audit by each type of societies are shown in the enclosure attached.

         

The Deputy Registrars (Audit) and Assistant Registrars (Audit) will adhere to the guidelines contained in the Circular with immediate effect and attain substantial progress in the  clearance of arrears of audit.

CIRCULAR No. 22/89



Sub:   Co-operation – Granting of exemption from educational qualifications for purposes of promotion under Rule 185 (2) of the Kerala Co-op: Societies Rules- 1969- Guidelines for deciding deserving cases-issued.



Rule 185 (2) of the Kerala Co-op: Societies Rules 1969, as amended in G. O. (Ms) No. 18/88/Co-op: dated 17-6-1988 empowers the committee of a society to relax the qualifications of an employee for purpose of promotion in deserving cases with the prior approval of the Registrar and for reasons to be recorded in writing.  Accordingly, the proposals received from the societies other than Apex and district level societies were being disposed of by the Joint Registrars in the districts under the delegated powers.  In the absence of specific guidelines to decide whether a given case is a deserving one for being considered for promotion relaxing the qualification, decisions granting/refusing relaxation from the prescribed qualification were also found to be not uniform.  So also a general tendency to recommend all cases for relaxation from the prescribed qualifications in a routine manner without going into the merits and without considering the effect of such exemption in the general working of the institution, has been noticed on the part of the management of the societies.  Considering all these  aspects, it is felt that specific instructions should be issued for the guidance of the officers exercising the powers under rule 185 (2)  of the Kerala Co-op: Societies rules.  Accordingly the following guidelines are issued with the approval of the Government for deciding as to whether any given case is a deserving one or not for relaxation of qualifications under rule 185 (2) of the Kerala Co-op: Societies rules 1969, for purpose of promotion of employees.



1.   Exemption from academic qualification:

(i)      Minimum qualification for ministerial and supervisory posts, other than those requiring technical qualification shall be S.S.L.C.  Exemption from passing S.S.L.C. shall not be granted under any circumstances.  However in the case of employees who were appointed directly to the ministerial posts before 1-1-1974, the above restriction will not apply.

(ii)     Where academic qualification prescribed is graduation and above, exemption from acquiring the said qualification may be considered, if the incumbent satisfied the following conditions.

(a)     Should have passed JDC or equivalent.

(b)     Should have a minimum service of 5 years in the feeder category.

(c)     Should not be less than 45 years of age.



2.   Exemption from Training qualification:

(i)      Employees of sub-staff category shall not be exempted from training qualification for purpose of promotion to the clerical category.

(ii)     In the case of employees continuing in the ministerial and supervisory posts, exemption from training qualification may be considered if such employees have got a minimum service of 5 years in the feeder category and have passed 45  years of age.



3.   General conditions to be satisfied:

(i)      The Resolution of the Board of Directors of the Society relating to relaxation from qualification should indicate clearly the reason justifying the exemption and should certify the competency of the incumbent to hold the post to which he is being promoted based on performance appraisal.

(ii)     The incumbent should not have been punished by imposing any of the following penalties within a period of 5 years prior to the date of the resolution.

(a)     withholding of increment, with cumulative effect,

(b)     withholding of promotion.

(c)     Recovery from pay of the whole or part for any pecuniary loss caused to the society, by negligence or breach of orders or otherwise.

(d)     Reduction to a lower rank.

(iii)    For posts requiring technical and special qualifications other than those prescribed under Rule 186, exemption from relevant qualifications shall not be granted.

(iv)    Exemption, being given to an individual should be for promotion to a specified post i.e., exemption from qualification should be obtained at the time of each promotion.



AUTHORITY FOR GRANTING EXEMPTION:



(i)      Subject to the above guidelines, the Joint Registrar of the Districts are competent to dispose of all applications for exemption in respect of employees of societies having area of operation extending to less than a district.  As regards applications for exemption in respect of employees of Co-op: Societies having area of operation extending to one District and above eligible proposals will be referred to Registrar of Co-operative Societies by the Joint Registrar concerned duly recommended and such applications will be disposed of by Registrar of Co-operative Societies.



(ii)     Applications which do not strictly conform to the guidelines, but are considered as deserving cases for any special reasons, may be referred to Registrar of Co-operative Societies by the Joint Registrars concerned duly recommended and such applications shall be disposed of by the Registrar of Co-operative Societies only, irrespective of the type or area of operation of the society.



The procedure prescribed in Registrar’s letter No EM (2) 66638/88 dated 4-1-1989 with regard to filing of applications for exemption should be strictly followed.  All the documents indicated there in and such other particulars as are considered necessary by the Joint Registrar should be obtained and scrutinised properly before taking a final decision on the application for exemption. Joint Registrars should exercise the power of exemption diligently and with utmost caution so as to ensure that only deserving cases are granted exemption.



The instructions issued in Registrar’s letter No EM (1) – 49346/88 dated 19-9-1988 to the Joint Registrars, to forward all applications relating to exemption under rule 185 (2) of the KCS Rules to Registrar, are hereby withdrawn.  Hereafter only those applications which are to be disposed of by the Registrar of Co-operative Societies alone need be sent to Registrar.  Receipt of this circular should be acknowledged.

CIRCULAR No. 26/89



Sub:   Co-operation Department-Employees of Co-operative Societies-Employment assistance to dependants of employees dying in harness-Furnishing of application-Instruction issued.

Ref:   G.O.(Ms.) No.43/88/Coop.  Dated 13-10-1988.



As per the G.O. cited Government have issued orders incorporating amendment to the Kerala Co-operative Societies Rules, introducing a new Rule 188 A, making necessary provision to give employment assistance to the dependants of employees of Co-operative Societies, dying in harness.  It is seen that the applications received for the employment assistance under the above said scheme are often devoid of essential details rendering it impossible to examine the case in the light of the G.O. cited. The following instructions are therefore issued with regard to the procedure to be followed in the submission of applications for employment assistance under the said scheme and for their disposal.



(1).    It shall be competent for the committee of a society to appoint a person, who is a dependant of an employee, who dies while in service, with the prior concurrence of the Registrar of Co-operative Societies.  The application for such appointment, should therefore, be submitted by the eligible dependant in the ‘Form A’ appended to the president of the society concerned.



(2).    The list of relatives of the deceased employee, eligible for employment assistance under the rules has been given in the G. O. cited.  The application for appointment under the scheme shall be made by the dependant within one year from the date of death of the employee, where the dependant happens to be a minor the application shall be submitted within a period of 3 years from the date of attaining the age of majority.  In case the application for employment assistance under the scheme is furnished by a dependant, not in accordance with the priority assigned in the rules, the persons who have higher priority for such employment assistance over the applicant shall furnish an unconditional statement agreeing to forfeit their claim for employment assistance under the scheme and giving consent to give appointment under the scheme to the applicant.  A specimen form for giving the consent is appended as “Form B”.

Sub:   Co-op: Societies-purchase or lease of land or the acquisition, construction or renewal of building and disposal of immovable property with the prior sanction of Registrar-non-compliance of the provisions of Rule 54 of KCS Rules, 1969-Instructions issued.



According to sub-rule (1) of Rule 54 of K.C.S.Rules, if a society plans to purchase or lease of land or to acquire, construct or renew any building that may be necessary to conduct its business, the previous sanction of Registrar has to be obtained.  The provisions of the above said sub-rule, are however, not applicable.



 a)      to immovable property purchased (i) by a society at a sale held in execution of a decree, decision or obtained by it for recovery of any sum due to it, or (ii) by a Financing Bank at a sale held in execution of a decree, decision of award obtained by a society financed it for the recovery of any sum due to such society or at a sale by or on behalf of the liquidator of such society.

b)      to the purchase or lease of lands or purchase, construction or remodelling of a society whose objects according to its bye-laws include such purchase, lease, construction or remodelling.



The above provision regarding obtaining previous sanction of Registrar for the purposes mentioned above was incorporated in the Rules with a view that only such societies having financial stability and surplus funds shall be allowed to purchase or lease or land or to acquire, construct, or renew building that may be necessary to conduct its business and that normal working of societies shall not be affected for want of working capital if they are engaged in such transactions or activities.



A certain instance of violation of the mandatory provisions of Rule 54 (1) has recently come to the notice of the Department.  Therefore, the attention of all Co-operative Societies is drawn to the provisions in Rule 54 of K.C.S. Rules and they are requested that they should necessarily abide by the provisions of the Rule.  Any violation of the above Rule in future shall call for severe actions including those under section 32 and 63 of the KCS Act, 1969.



The Joint Registrars of the districts and Asst. Registrars (General) of circles shall closely watch the transactions of these kinds in societies and if any instance of violation of provisions of Rule 54 is noticed it shall be promptly dealt with as per the provisions in K.C.S. Act and Rules, 1969 and as mentioned above.

CIRCULAR No. 32/89



Sub:   Co-operative Societies-Disqualification for membership of  Committee-Judgement of High Court in O.P. 4465/88-Further instructions issued on the basis of the decision of High Court.



In the Kerala Co-operative Societies Rule, 1969, there was a Rule, Viz. Rule 44 (1) (m), which read as follows:

“44 (1) No member of the society shall be eligible for being elected, or appointed as a member of the Committee of the Society under section 28 if he:- (m) has been a member of the Committee for two consecutive terms (whether for the full term of each committee or only for part of the terms of both or any one of them) and a period of two years has not elapsed from the date of expiry of the latter of such term, unless he obtains previous exemption from the Registrar”.

The above said clause (m) of sub-rule (1) of rule 44 was omitted from the K.C.S. Rules, 1969 by SRO No.16/81 published in Kerala Gazette No.1 dated 6-1-1981, with the bonafide intension that services of experienced and expert non-official co-operators are made available to the co-op: societies uninterrpted so that the affairs of co-op: societies are managed efficiently.  Even though the statutory provision regarding this disqualification has been omitted, the byelaws of some societies still contain the analogus provision to the effect that a member of the society shall not be eligible for being elected or appointed as a member of the committee of the society under section 28 if he has been a member of the committee for two consecutive terms (whether for the full term of each committee or only for part of the term of both or any one of them) and a period of two years has not elapsed from the date of expiry of the latter of such term, unless he obtains previous exemption from the Registrar to stand for election. The Honourable High Court had occasion in O.P. No.4465/1988 to examine the legal validity of such provisions in the byelaws of societies in the backgroundof the omission of corresponding provision in clause (m) of sub rule (1) of  Rule 44 of KCS Rules, 1969 by SRO No 16/81.  The excerit of para 5 of the Judgement dated 5-8-1988 on O.P. 4465/1988 (M.Raghava Kurup Vs. Joint Registrar, Kottayam) is reproduced below:

“5. The byelaws of a co-operative society, like the Articles of Association of a company, constitute contract not only between the society and its members but also bertween the members interse. They are binding between the members and govern their mutual relationship and rights inter as vis-à-vis the affairs of  the society (Shiv Omkar V.Basidhar AIR 1956 Bom. 459).  They rule the internal management,  business or administration of the society (Co-operative Central Bank Ltd. V.Additional Industrial Tribunal AIR 1970.S.C.245 and Garad V.Nasik Merchants Co-operative Bank Ltd AIR 1984 SC 192 )  The provision contained in section 28 of the Act and Rule 44 of the Rules have given effect to this principle Sub section (1) of Section 28 which provides for the appointment of the committee of a co-operative society directs the general body of the society to constitute the committee in accordance with its byelaws and to entrust the management of its affairs to such committee sub section (2) of section prescribes certain disqualifications for appointment  as, or for being, a member of the Committee. Rule 44, framed under section 109 (2) (XIV) of the Act, enumerates further disqualifications for membership of the committee. Inter alia clause (j) of sub rule (1) makes a member ineligible from such membership if he is disqualified under any “other” provision in the byelaws of the society. The byelaws may therefore add heads of disqualification which are not otherwise found in section 28 (2) or Rule 44 (1) or to put it differently, a person may be disqualified under the bye-laws even though he may not be disqualified under section 28(2) or Rule 44(1). This is in accord with the proposition earlier mentioned that the byelaws constitute a contract between the members, and that the terms and conditions of their interse relationships as got forth in the byelaws should bind them.  The byelaws govern so long as they are not inconsistent with the Act or the Rules”.



In the background of the above decision, the Honourable High Court in the present case held that the byelaws that no person shall be a member of the managing committee for more than three consequtive terms except with the special sanction of the Deputy Registrar (now Joint Registrar) is authorised by Rule 44 (1) (j) and it is not inconsistant with the Act or with the Rules.



In the light of High Court’s Judgement that the byelaws of a Co-operative Society may add heads of disqualification which are not otherwise found in section 28(2) or Rule 44 (1)  and that it is authorised by Rule 44 (1) (j), steps have to be taken to amend byelaws suitably by those co-operative societies the byelaws of which restrict the continued membership of a member in the committee for more than two consecutive terms without the previous sanction of Registrar.



All the Joint Registrars may therefore, examine the bye-laws of co-operative societies and give directions to those co-operative societies to amend their byelaws suitably so that the intention of Government in omitting clause (m) of sub rule (1) of Rule 44 is achieved.

       2.  Letter No. D14-38707/88 dated 25-6-88 from the Director General of Police Trivandrum.



In the circular cited above instructions were given to all the co-operative institutions in the state for achieving the physical security of Co-op. Institutions especially credit institutions.  Among the various remedial measures suggested for the security of the Co-op. Credit institutions it was instructed that there should preferably be only one entry/exit point and that should be properly guarded by a trained and intelligent guard.  In the said circular it was also intimated that security in the Co-op. Credit institutions must be enforced without looking into the cost factor and that factor should be no consideration for achieving the desired level of safety and security and that as regards external threats involving robberies and dacoities, security arrangements should be fortified so that such attempts are foiled as far as possible.



In the letter cited second above, the Director General of police, has informed this office that thefts from co-operative Banks situated in mofussil areas in the state is on the increase.  As a preventive measure, the Director General of police has suggested that it is desirable to appoint  armed night watchmen and to construct strong rooms in all coop credit institutions.



In the above circumstances, all the coop. Credit institutions are once again requested that they should strictly adhere to the instructions contained in the circular cited above.  Those coop. Credit institutions which are to keep a sizable cash balance or valuable securities like gold ornaments etc. in the institutions branches of institutions should construct strong room and appoint armed night watchman with uniform if not already done. While appointing armed night watchman Ex-servicemen who are trained in handling, modern weaponry and in preventing/defending/robberies and dacoities should be given preference.  If no sanctioned post of night watchman is existing on the society/bank, application for sanction for the creation of the post of night watchman with convincing reasons should immediately be submitted to the Joint Registrar of Coop. Societies of the district and the Joint Registrar of Co-operative Societies shall consider such applications with due weight and after taking into stock of the necessity and the various security arrangements to be made in the institution.

Sub:     Audit-Audit of Primary Agricultural Credit Societies, other societies and District Co-operative Banks-assessment of bad and doubtful debts and other assets and creation of reserves for the erosion of assets-Instructions issued.

Ref: 1. Instructions issued as per this office letter No. ADL (2) 26588/76 dated 16-6-76.

        2. This office Circular No. 43/87 dated 20-9-87.

        3. Letter No. NB.ID.HYD 5483/Pol-I J.1/88-89, dated 4-1-1989 from the Inspection Department of NABARD, Hyderabad.



As per this office letter 1st cited the revised guidelines issued by the Reserve Bank of India as per their letter No. ACD, I D 10585/J 17-75/76 dated 12-4-1986 for assessment of bad and doubtful debts and other assets of Primary Agricultural Credit Societies and Central Banks have been communicated to the Departmental officers in the audit wing and the Secretaries of all District Co-operative Banks with directions to implement the suggestions contained therein.  As per the Circular 2nd cited the Concurrent Auditors of all District Co-operative Banks have been again instructed to ensure that bad and doubtful debts are estimated strictly in accordance with the guidelines issued by the Reserve Bank of India referred to above and enclose a certificate to that effect with the audit report from the year 1986-87 onwards.



But the NABARD has pointed out that the Auditors of Primary Agricultural Credit Societies, other societies and the District Co-operative Banks are not systematically examining this matter while finalising the audit and not ensuring that erosion in the assets estimated and provision made for it in accordance with the guidelines issued by the Reserve Bank of India.



Therefore the Auditors and Chief Executives of all Primary Agricultural Credit Societies, other societies and District Co-operative Banks are once again requested to see that the estimate for bad and doubtful debts and other assets and creation of provision for the erosion of assets are done fully in accordance with the guidelines issued by the Reserve Bank of India as per their letter referred to above.

Office of the Registrar of Co-operative Societies,

                                             Trivandrum, 29-11-1989



CIRCULAR No. 68/89



Sub:   Maintenance of Fluid Resources by Co-operative Societies not coming under the purview of the Banking Regulation Act-provision of Rule 61 of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act-compliance-Regarding.



Majority of the Primary Agricultural Credit Societies in Kerala are at present having satisfactory level of deposits and the deposits constitute considerable portion of their working capital.  It is needless to point out that strong public confidence is the prime requisite for any financial institution or class of such institutions for attracting and maintaining satisfactory level of deposits.  This naturally brings with it the inevitable liability and added responsibility on the part of the institutions concerned to see that the deposits mobilised by them are profitably utilised and are promptly repaid on maturity.  Therefore the administrative authorities have the necessary duty to ensure that none of the Primary Agricultural Credit Societies which receive deposits fail in this regard.



It is only with this end in view, specific provision has been made in the Kerala Co-operative Societies Rules (Rule 61) that every society which accept deposits but not coming within the purview of the B. R. Act shall maintain Fluid Resources at the rates prescribed therein, so that such societies shall not have any difficulty in discharging their deposit liabilities on maturity. There should not have been any failure on the part of the societies in adhering to this mandatory provision of the statute and further that the administrative and supervisory authorities of these societies should have ensured the compliance of the same.



However, it has come to notice that many of the Primary  Agricultural Credit Societies which accept deposits are not maintaining the statutory ‘Fluid Resource and consequently some of them are finding it difficult to discharge liabilities towards their depositors in time. This  kind of situation cannot be allowed to continue as it is disgrace to the whole co-operative sector. Such a situation will affect not only the working of the societies concerned but other societies accepting deposits also causing damage to public confidence and opinion.



If the inspecting and supervising officers of the department and District Co-operative Banks give due importance and attention to see that all the Primary Agricultural Credit societies working under their control maintain the required fluid resources without fail  this undesirable situation can be checked and avoided.  It is therefore instructed that all officers of the department as well as those of District Co-operative Banks shall ensure that all Primary Agricultural Credit Societies working under their control which receive deposits maintain the minimum fluid resources as required by Rule 61 of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Rules.  All Unit Inspectors are required to furnish from January, 1990 a monthly certificate to the Assistant Registrars (General) to the effect that all the Primary Agricultural Credit Societies working under their control have maintained the required fluid resources during the preceding month and action have been initiated in defaulted cases.  Based on these certificates Assistant Registrars shall submit a further certificate to the Joint Registrar and the Joint Registrars in turn furnish the certificate to this office by 15th of each month.



The District Co-operative Banks are also required to obtain a similar certificate from the supervisory staff and review the position in the monthly staff conference.  District Co-operative Banks are also requested to ensure that maintenance of required fluid resources by Primary Agricultural Credit Societies shall be made one of the conditions while sanctioning of loans.



It is also brought to the notice of the Joint Registrars and District Co-operative Banks that Government have taken serious note of the above situation.  It is therefore desired that the actual position as it stands now has to be ascertained and reported to Government. All the Joint Registrars are required to furnish the following details so as to reach here before 15th December 1989.

1.       No. of Co-operative institutions in the District not coming under the purview of the B. R. Act which receive deposits

2.       Of the above No. of societies which do not maintain the required fluid resources.

3.       Action taken to ensure that all the societies in item (2) above maintain the required fluid resources.



It may please be noted that any failure for proper and effective supervision and control of the societies will cause far reaching consequences and therefore all are requested to ensure that there is no case of defaults in this regard.

Sub:         Co-operative Societies-Admission of the members of the Scheduled Caste/Scheduled Tribe Co-operative Societies in the Primary Agricultural Credit Societies previous sanction issued.

Read:  1.  Govt.letter No.11868/C2/87/Coop. Dated 1-12-1987.

           2.  Govt.letter No.2028/A2/88/Coop.dated 21-12-1988.

ORDER

As per sub-rule (1) of rule 27 of the K.C.S. Rules, 1969 a person applying for admission as a member of any credit society (not being Land Mortgage Bank, House Mortgage Bank or Financing Bank) or a housing society shall be admitted as such member only with the previous sanction in writing of the Registrar, if on the date of such application such person is a member of any other such credit society or housing society.  According to the classification of societies in the Rule 15 of the said Rules, Scheduled Caste Co-opertive Societies/Scheduled Tribe Cooperative Societies and Primary Agricultural Credit Societies such as service Coopertive Societies/Bank, Farmers Service  Co-operative Banks, come under the type of “Credit Societies”.  Therefore members of the Scheduled Caste Cooperative Societies/Scheduled Tribe Co-operative Societies are not eligible for membership in the Primary Agricultural Credit Societies without the previous sanction of Registrar.



The Scheduled Caste Co-operative Societies and Scheduled Tribe Co-operative Societies are primarily organised for generating employment opportunities to their members and, therefore, these societies may not be in a position to meet the members needs relating to agriculture, etc. In the circumstances, the admission of the members of the Scheduled Caste Co-operative Societies/Scheduled Caste Co-operative Societies in the Primary Agricultural Credit Societies as members is long felt necessary.  In the letters read as 1st & 2nd papers above, Government have directed to issue permissive sanction for the admission of the members of the Scheduled Castes Co-operative Societies in the Primary Agricultural Credit Societies.



In the above circumstances, sanction is accorded by invoking powers vested on me under Rule (1) of rule 27 of the K.C.S. Rules, 1969, for the admission of the members of the Scheduled Caste Co-operative Societies and Scheduled Tribes Co-opertive Societies included under item 2 (c) of rule 15 of the said Rules as members of Primary Agricultural Credit Societies such as Service Co-operative Societies/Banks  and Farmers Service Co-operative Banks.



The Primary Agricultural Credit Societies shall consider application for membership of these members if otherwise they are qualified for membership.

No.CB(4) 70034/87.  

Office of the Registrar of Co-operative Societies

                                              Thiruvananthapuram, 27-12-1989

From



The Registrar of Co-operative Societies

To

The Secretary,

All Urban Banks,

(Through Joint Registrars)

Sir, 

Sub:   Issue of no objection certificate to Urban Co-op: Banks for opening branches-regarding.



As per the instructions of Reserve Bank of India for the opening of a branch of an Urban Co-operative Bank within the area of operation, of the “no-objection certificate was not issued by the Department within 2 months from the date of application.  The applications for the license for the opening of a branch might be considered by the Reserve Bank of India without the same.  It has been brought to the notice of this office that there are instances where the Reserve Bank of India issued licence for opening branches of Urban Co-operative Banks without No-Objection Certificate from Department on account of the reason mentioned above.  On the other side it is also seen that the Urban Banks are not applying to the Department for the No-objection Certificate well in advance, so as to enable them to produce the same to Reserve Bank of India and along with the application.  The following instructions are therefore issued in the matter.

1.       The Urban Co-operative Banks will hereafter apply to Reserve Bank of India for license to open branches only after obtaining the No-objection Certificate from the Department.

2.       For that purpose the application in the proper form with all details should be forwarded to Registrar of Co-op: Societies through Joint Registrar well in advance so that Registrar of Co-operative Societies could  consider it and dispose of the same within the prescribed time of two months from the date of application.



The attention of the Joint Registrar of Co-operative Societies are also invited to letter No. CB (4) 2227/88 dated, 3-10-88 where in they were instructed to ensure that timely action is taken on the proposals of the Urban Banks for No-objection Certificate and to forward the same to Registrar of Co-operative Societies with all details prescribed by Reserve Bank of India so as to enable Registrar of Co-operative Societies to consider the proposal within the prescribed period of 2 months.  They are once again requested to strictly adhere to the instructions issued so as to avoid inconveniences to the Banks on account of the delay in issuing the No-objection Certificate.



Yours Faithfully
