Who was the Mamlatdar mentioned in Chapter 21, and what was his story?

Chapter 21 introduces the story of a man who was highly educated in English and held a B.A. degree. Through his career progression, he first obtained the post of Mamlatdar and was later promoted to Collector. The chapter highlights that it was by "good fortune" that this accomplished officer obtained the company of Sai Baba. The text also offers a vivid description of his Mamlatdar role, comparing it to a hill that looks beautiful from a distance but is actually surrounded by thorny bushes up close. This suggests that while the post held great status, it was fraught with unseen difficulties.
