3. The case of the petitioner, in brief as per the averments made in the affidavit filed by the petitioner in support of the present Writ Petition is as under:-

It is the specific case of the petitioner that the respondent authorities had been allotting paddy to the petitioner rice mill under Custom Milling Rice Scheme, and the petitioner had been regularly milling the paddy and delivering rice without any complaints. During the Khariff season 2023-24, the respondent authorities allotted a quantity of 18658 quintals of paddy and due to heavy rains, a major portion of the stock of paddy was damaged. Consequently, the rice sent by the petitioner to the Food Corporation of India was returned, as it had not met the prescribed specifications. During Khariff Season 2024-25 the respondent authorities allotted 8728.80 quintals of paddy but, however, the petitioner could deliver only 1,450.00 quintals of rice. Thereafter, the respondent authorities issued Memo No.3809/CS.I-CCS/2025, dated 24.11.2025 to the petitioner to deliver FRK Sannabiyyam within a period of 90 days time. The petitioner submitted a detailed explanation/representation dated 20.02.2026 requesting additional time to deliver the balance quantity of rice. However, the respondent authorities had not taken any steps in this regard. Aggrieved by the same, the petitioner had approached this Court by filing the present writ petition.
