Mr. Rayrikar, learned AGP appears and waives service of notice on behalf of respondent Nos.1 to 3 - State. 3.

The Commissioner, considering the report submitted by the District Supply Officer, recorded a finding that the nature of illegalities alleged against respondent No.4 are serious in nature, which includes creation of record to show supply of food grain to the dead persons, married daughters, and not maintaining the record as per Rules. However, said finding has been interfered with by the respondent No.1 assigning the reason that previously
