Controversies


Ravindra Gaikwad himself has various criminal charges against him which include voluntarily causing hurt to deter public servants from duty, criminal intimidation and rioting among others.
On 23 March 2017, while travelling to Delhi from Pune, he was accused of hitting an Air India staff with his shoe 25 times and attempting to throw him out of the plane. This act led all of the Indian Airline companies to impose a No-Fly ban on him. He mentioned that he is not a BJP member to tolerate the scolding. Delhi police filed two criminal charges on him: one for hitting the government staff on duty and the other for taking the plane ransom without departing from the plane. He has been designated as the first person to the NoFly list in India. The incident happened when the Air India flight AI852 from Pune reached Delhi around 10.30 a.m. on March 23, 2017.
Earlier, in 2014 he was in a row over trying to force-feed a Muslim caterer during the fasting month of Ramzan.
In April 2017, Ravindra Gaikwad and his supporters were booked for unlawful assembly, misbehaviour and causing disorder at a public place following an incident in Latur, Maharashtra, where he allegedly behaved rudely with police officials, staged an agitation and shouted slogans. This was in response to his inability to get money from an ATM. He expressed concerns about lack of availability of cash despite significant passage of time after demonetization. He expressed a view that it was the Union Finance Minister as well as the Maharashtra Finance Minister's responsibility to rectify the situation.
