Rahatkar had allegedly expressed support for separate Marathwada and Vidarbha states, within days after then Advocate General Shreehari Aney triggered a row by voicing support for separate Marathwada state in Jalna.
Police had earlier arrested at least two local Sena leaders who were subsequently released on bail.
