Who Is Kulisha Mishra?

This unidentified person was reportedly spotted by Mishra. In a quote to news media, she said that she spotted an unidentified person going out of the palace on Saturday night when she was on the lawn. She added that she did not react at the time as she was in panic and thought that it must be a case of theft.

"But this morning, we spotted the flag of the princely state missing from the flag post of the palace and a saffron flag was put in its place," she said. Mishra also said that this act can be a "political" message considering how the building is home to the oldest Congress tribal families of Madhya Pradesh-Chhattisgarh.

Apart from being associated with the youth congress, she is also the Chairperson of Jawahar Bal Manch (JBM) CG and the former State GS for the Indian Youth Congress Chhattisgarh. She had done her LLM (Master of Law) in International Law and Development. She is an Alumna of the University of Nottingham.
