    Summary The Bombay High Court dismissed multiple writ petitions challenging a recovery certificate issued by the Assistant Registrar of Cooperative Societies for Rs. 1,70,53,041.38 against loan guarantors. The Court found the dispute centered on factual questions—including allegations of forged signatures, fabricated documents, and false account entries—which cannot be definitively resolved through summary writ proceedings and require a fuller examination before appropriate forums. The Court directed petitioners to pursue their remedy through revision under Section 154 of the Maharashtra Co-operative Societies Act, as the statutory revisional mechanism and cooperative court proceedings are better suited to adjudicate such disputed factual matters.
