Answer 1

Answer:

C. Co-operative Ombudsman

The Co-operative Arbitration Court and the Registrar are the dispute resolution bodies under Chapter IX of the Kerala Co-operative Societies Act. The Co-operative Arbitration Court is for non-monetary disputes, and the Registrar is for monetary disputes. 

Arbitration is a private dispute resolution procedure where a dispute is submitted to one or more arbitrators who make a binding decision.
