casestatus.in Summary

Case Summary: W.P.(C) No. 457/2021 Outcome: The Supreme Court dismissed the petition but imposed specific conditions to allow the Kohlapur dairy cooperative's elections to proceed. The Court directed the election authority to increase polling centers from 35 to 70, strictly enforce COVID-19 protocols, and maintain strict vigil against congregation of voters. Key Issue: Petitioner challenged Maharashtra's April 6, 2021 order postponing all cooperative society elections due to COVID-19, which created an exception allowing the Federation's elections to continue despite the pandemic surge. Court's Decision: The petition was disposed of with directions rather than acceptance, recognizing that only the final two election stages remained and approximately 3,650 voters were involved, making the elections feasible with enhanced safety measures.
