    Rathva faced immense backlash after a video went viral on social media showing him, his son Sangramsinh Rathva, and a local taluka president allegedly brandishing firearms in public. The local police registered a case against them for violating official notifications regarding the public display of weapons. In response, Rathva claimed they were in a state of 'excessive excitement' following a local election victory and had momentarily 'forgotten the law'.
