Entering the world of crime
As a teenager, Sehrawat began committing petty crimes such as robbing people. His first arrest was for robbery in Haryana in 2004. Bavana served three months in prison and was later released on bail. Shortly after, he was arrested again in 2005 for possession of weapons without a license. This time he was imprisoned for two years in Delhi’s Tihar Jail. During his stay in Tihar Jail, Bawana met Fazal-ur-Rahman, a close associate of Dawood who worked from Malaysia, Dubai, Nepal and India, and spent several months with him. From Fazal, Bawana learned the tricks of the trade, viz. How to catch the police and use technology without tracking. According to reports, it was Rahman who convinced Bawana to get involved in the extortion case by sharing stories about Dawood and his relationship with her.

Association and rivalry with Neitu Daboda
Neerai rose to fame after falling out with her sometime partner in crime, Surendra Malik, Neetu Daboda. When Neeraj was still new to extortion, Neetu was a well-established name in the world of crime. They joined hands at one point and over the years carried out robberies, murders and extortions together. In 2011, they were joined by Ajay alias Sonu Pandit, a resident of Tatesar village in Delhi. Gradually Pandit became very close to Neeraj and this became the reason for separation between Neeraj and Neetu. Neetu felt that Sonu is turning Neeraj against her and the duo could kill her. In 2012, Neetu kidnapped Sonu and brutally killed him. The incident led to a rift between Neeraj and Neetu. Bawana broke away from Neetu and formed his own gang. Since then there have been many gang wars between these two gangs. Many people were killed in the conflict between these gangs. Daboda later lost his life in an encounter with the Delhi Police Special Cell, but the gang rivalry continued.

Caught and arrested in 2015
Expanding his operations into extortion and contract killings, Bawana took his gang to new heights. He started collecting a steady flow of money from the factories operating in Bavana village. He also got involved in gambling and betting houses that operated in his area of influence. In 2015, he was arrested from the main Rohtak road at 3:45 am when he was on his way to meet his family. Bawana was then sent to Tihar Jail in Delhi. In jail, he befriended Naveen Bali, Rahul Kala, Sunil Rath and Amit Bhura, who later became part of his gang. Neeraj was first admitted to Jail No. 1 of Tihar Jail along with other prisoners. However, he was later shifted to the High Security Ward (Jail Number 2) after the Delhi Police informed the jail authorities that he had been in touch with his gang members inside and outside the jail. As of 2021, he is still operating his gang from inside the prison. His gang includes more than 50 goons who are involved in murders, robberies, extortion and property grabbing in Delhi, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and Uttarakhand districts.
