(2.) The petitioners are aggrieved by the action of respondents in proposing to transfer the assets of the Co-operative Sugar Factories in favour of private individuals on the ground that they have become sick and there is no possibility of rehabilitating the same.

(3.) In W.P. No.11937 of 2002, the first petitioner is the Anakapalle Co-operative Sugar Limited itself, represented by its Chairman. In all other writ petitions, the petitioners are the members and shareholders in Co-operative Sugar Factories.
