See also:Maharashtra Navnirman Sena (Maharashtra Reconstruction Army), a regional
political party which operates in the state of Maharashtra, was founded in 2006
by former members of Shiv Sena party[1]. Its flag has a saffron
field, which is probably derived from the saffron flag of Shiv Sena, but with
addition of blue and green stripes along the top and bottom edges, respectively.
The stripes are separated from the field by white fimbriations. According to the
photos from the Wikipedia[1] and from the website of Maharashtra
Navnirman Vidhyarthi Sena (Maharashtra Reconstruction Students' Army), the
student wing of the party[2], the flag may have the aspect ratio of
either 1:2 (see image above) or 2:3 (see image below), and it seems that neither
of these prevails. The width of blue and green stripes and white fimbriations
also seem to vary sometimes (generally, they are as on the attached images). On
the other hand, the colour shades seem to be very uniform, although the cited
sources show flag images with the shades which sometimes differ a great deal
(however, these are not confirmed by the photos, whose shades are followed by
the attached images).
