  Recently, the LHCb Collaboration provided updated measurements for the lepton
flavour ratios $R_K$ and $R_{K^*}$. The currently observed values align with
the predictions of the standard model. In light of these recent updates, our
investigation delves into the repercussions of new physics characterized by
universal couplings to electrons and muons. We specifically focus on their
impact on various observables within the $B\to K_2^*(1430)(\to K\pi)\mu^+
\mu^-$ decay. These observables include the differential branching ratio,
forward-backward asymmetry ($A_{FB}$), longitudinal polarization asymmetry
($F_L$), and a set of optimized observables ($P_i$). Our findings indicate that
the branching ratio of $B\to K_2^*(\to K\pi)\mu^+ \mu^-$ decay can be
suppressed up to $25\%$ for various new physics solutions. Furthermore, all
permissible new physics scenarios demonstrate finite enhancement in the muon
forward-backward asymmetry $(A_{FB})$ as well as an increase in the value of
the optimized angular observable $P_2$. Moreover, in the presence of new
physics zero crossing points for $A_{FB}$ and $P_2$ shift towards higher $q^2$.
The current data have a mild deviation from SM predictions in $P_5'$ observable
in the low-$q^2$ bin. We also explored massive $Z'$ models, which can generate
universal 1D new physics scenarios, characterized by $C_9^{NP}<0$,
$C_9^{NP}=-C_{10}^{NP}$, and $C_9^{NP}=-C_9'$. Using additional constraints
coming from $B_s-\overline{B_s}$ mixing and neutrino trident process, we find
that the conclusions of the model-independent analysis remain valid.
