“Who am I to decide? Who asks me nowadays,” Mahajan said while responding to a media query during inspection of ​the ​construction of Kala Sankul Bhawan and Gandhi hall on Saturday.

She said that suggesting names by me will not make any difference. “I can only say that good person​s​ should be selected as candidates ​so that they can lead the city​'s​ development,” Mahajan said.

She also said that Indore must be given priority in ministerial berth and negligence of Indore should be opposed.
