The petitioner is procuring about 200-220 quintal paddy every year and as per government policy, the petitioner is entitled to sale 200 quintal of paddy every year. In the Kharif season of 2025-26, the State Government issued the scheme for purchasing the paddy from the agriculturist which had been opened from 15.11.2025 to 31.01.2026. The petitioner is an agriculturist and is having some agriculture lands, thus he applied for selling his paddy before his society and after verification of the same the society registered the name of petitioner for selling the paddy from village society and issued the token number and to directed to appear on 08.01.2026 for selling the same. The petitioner is an agriculturist as well as businessmen due to which he has executed an affidavit in favour of Shri Balram Yadav for selling his paddy in his society as per registration of token. On the date of selling his paddy due to some personal difficulties the petitioner could

not appeared for selling his paddy in his society and his authorized person Balram Yadav appeared instead of petitioner. The petitioner carried his paddy in KATTI and handed over the society for selling the same through his authorized person Balram Yadav, but unfortunately instead of 200 quintal of paddy his authorized person handed over the 316 quintals of paddy as the petitioner's family are also having some agricultural land, due to which an enquiry was initiated by the respondent No.6 and without giving any notice and opportunity of hearing and without adhering the provisions of Chhattisgarh Krishi Upaj Mandi Adhiniyam, 1972, seized the paddy total 316 quintals of paddy of the petitioner by stating that instead of 200 quintals of paddy 316 quintal was handed over from one Balram Yadav who is not an owner of the said paddy and also stated that, at the time of selling the paddy he did not appear in his society. Thereafter, a case was registered regarding the seizure of paddy and in between the portal for purchasing the paddy has been closed and the token has already been cancelled, due to which the petitioner is unable to sell his 200 quintals paddy to the society as per government scheme, thus the petitioner is facing various difficulties with regard to sell of paddy due to wrong interpretation of Chhattisgarh Krishi Upaj Mandi Adhiniyam, 1972 made by the respondent No.6.
