A political storm has erupted in Maharashtra following a statement by AIMIM councillor Seher Shaikh about her green-colored attire. The remark has been seized upon by BJP and Eknath Shinde’s party, escalating the controversy ahead of upcoming local elections. Seher Shaikh has clarified her statement amid growing criticism, saying that allegations against her were false.
