A Preliminary Enquiry (P.E) was ordered by FCS&CA Department that indeed found the contents of the complaint as true. It was found out that many villagers in the area were receiving food grains at NPHH rates when they actually were figuring as PHH beneficiaries. As such, the department fixed responsibility on five officials from the level of Assistant Director up to the local Store Keeper, including the incumbent and retired Tehsil Supply Officers. The Officers were charged for their complete supervisory failure in ensuring the basic rights being provided under NFSA.
