    Order

    The court convicted Sharadbhai Kalubhai Vasiya under Section 54(1) of the Prohibition Act, but reduced the sentence to a fine of ₹100 instead of the minimum prescribed punishment. The court exercised discretionary leniency considering the accused's impoverished background, sole responsibility for family support, first-time offender status, and potential hardship to dependents if imprisoned, finding special and adequate reasons to impose the lesser sentence.
