11. In the aforesaid conspectus, we have to examine as to whether this power which is available with the civil court to grant damages is now given to the Cooperative Court under Section 91 of the Act. We may also mention at this stage that some of the States have statutes which contain provisions regarding management and regulations of the cooperative society, where specific machinery under these State Cooperative Societies Acts is provided for resolution of employment disputes as well, between the cooperative societies and its employees, that too by excluding the applicability of the labour laws. No doubt, in such cases, the disputes between the cooperative societies and its employees, including the workmen, would be dealt with by such machinery and the general Act, like the Industrial Disputes Act, would not be applicable (see Ghaziabad Zila Sahkari Bank Ltd. v. Labour Commr.) and Dharappa v. Bijapur Coop. Milk Producers Societies Union Ltd.). Pertinently, in the instant case, Section 91 specifically excludes the disputes between the cooperative society as employer and its "workmen". Ultimately, the outcome depends upon the powers that are given to the Cooperative Court or the stipulated tribunal d created under such Acts. It is in this hue we have to find out as to whether Section 91 of the Act at hand empowers Cooperative Courts to decide such disputes.
