The FIR was lodged on the direction of Rohtas DM after  Divisional Commissioner, Patna, Anand Kishor took initiative in this regard.

Ranjan Kumar alias Rajan of Dalmianagar said that Rohtas DM had allotted 7.72 kg of rice and 4.37 kg of wheat for each APL family from August 2010 to October 2010. He said that Deari-on-Sone has 16,266 APL cardholders but not a single of them was given the grains. He said he wrote to Rohtas DM, SDO, DSO, Food and Consumer Protection Minister Minister and even the Chief Minister but no action was taken. Finally, he wrote to the Prime Minister and at his instance an inquiry was ordered but a weak report was made to shield the guilty officials saying that dealers did not receive grains for six months.
