Wife of Key Accused in 2025 Nagpur Riots Wins Nagpur Civic Election on AIMIM Ticket

Alisha Khan, wife of Minority Democratic Party city chief Fahim Khan—who is a key accused in the March 2025 Nagpur riots—won a Nagpur Municipal Corporation civic election seat on an AIMIM ticket. Fahim Khan faces charges under multiple laws related to the violence following protests over Aurangzeb's tomb. AIMIM secured six seats in Nagpur, with party leaders attributing Alisha's victory to public sympathy over perceived injustices against her husband.
