Controversy

In March 2024, after the Bharatiya Janata Party announced their roster of candidates, footage of Rawat engaging in objectionable actions went viral on social media. Following this, Rawat initially denied the allegations and stated that the video was doctored. An FIR was filed against unknown individuals by his personal secretary at the Kotwali police station.[7] On March 4 2024, Rawat cancelled his candidacy in the 2024 general elections vowing to not contest any other elections until proven innocent.[8]
