According to reports, the dispute began last year when Jitendra Meghwal was sitting outside his house in Barwa village and he had an exchange of words with Suraj Singh Rajpurohit of the village who was passing by.
 
 
Suraj Singh Rajpurohit, at that time, made some comments saying ‘how did you make eye contact with me.’ The matter escalated to a physical fight. Jitendrapal Meghwal lodged a case of assault against Suraj Singh Rajpurohit and his accomplices.
