Riyan Parag, the captain of Rajasthan Royals, became the center of attention after being filmed vaping in the dressing room during a match against Punjab Kings. This incident, which occurred in the 16th over of the game, has drawn significant backlash as it violates India's Prohibition of Electronic Cigarettes Act (PECA), enacted on September 18, 2019. This law prohibits the production, sale, and use of e-cigarettes and vapes, with violations potentially leading to imprisonment and heavy fines. The incident overshadowed the team's victory, highlighting the ongoing scrutiny surrounding the conduct of players. This isn't the first controversy for Rajasthan Royals this season; earlier, team manager Romi Bhinder was fined for using a mobile phone in the dugout during a match, indicating a pattern of protocol violations within the franchise.
