It was held in the case that the Co-operative Department has been appointing one administrator after another in the PCSIR Employees Co-operative Housing Society for ten years.

The counsel of plaintiff further states that recently an inspector named Altaf Hussain Solangi was made the in-charge committee with the aim of conducting the elections within 60 days but after the lapse of 120 days he has not done any work regarding the elections. Therefore, it is requested from the court that the committee-in-charge should be bound to conduct the immediate elections while fulfilling their responsibility and stop them from doing all the work contrary to it.

Even after many decades, the original allotments are still stumbling.
