He said that he raised crucial issues among voters and now it was time for the people to announce their decision on May 16, which, he said, he would accept.
Despite political analysts forecasting that Mahajan may benefit from the “Modi wave” this time, Patel said that though the media had claimed a “Modi wave”, the prospects of any candidate from the Indore Lok Sabha seat would not influenced because of any particular personality.
Incidentally, Congress secretary and present MP from Mandasaur, Meenakshi Natarajan (40) was also selected as a candidate from this seat through the “primary” system.
Natarajan had defeated senior BJP leader and eight time Mandsaur MP, Laxminarayan Pandey, by a margin of 30,819 votes, in 2009.
This time she is in a contest against the BJP first timer, Sudhir Gupta (54) who is Mandsaur party president.
