Controversy

During the second wave of COVID-19, under his leadership, he initiated Covid Care Centres across Gujarat which were set up by various BJP Karyakartas. The severe scarcity of Remdesivir injection, recommended for use in mild infections. BJP's Gujarat president C.R. Patil ensured procurement of these injections directly from the Pharma company and ensured free distribution of the same to the poor and needy. However, this matter was taken up by leader of opposition with the court on the grounds that distribution of medical injections without Pharma license should not have been done. This matter is sub-judice. After he joined the Surat police in 1975 as a constable, he first courted trouble after a liquor hoard was recovered from a bootlegger's house in Palsana taluka in 1978 and his name cropped up in the police records as one of those involved. The same year, another prohibition case was registered against him at the Songadh police station. Patil was arrested by the Surat police Task Force and was finally suspended for six years from the job. In 2009, Mr. Patil’s son, Jignesh was arrested in Surat for consumption of alcohol which is prohibited under the state laws. He was later released on bail. In 2002, the Crime Branch arrested Patil as the chief defaulter in the Diamond Jubilee Cooperative Bank scam. Patil had taken a loan of more than Rs 54 crore from the cooperative bank and did not repay the amount causing the bank to be suspended from the clearing house in 2002.
