The Congress will flied Hema Singhania. Friday was the last day for filing nominations for the post of mayor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Both parties had finalized the names by Thursday night. Sheel Dhabai was expecting to be nominated by the BJP, but when Rashmi\u2019s name was finalized, Dhabhai\u2019s daughter reached the BJP office with some supporters and raised slogans in protest. She got into an argument with state BJP&#8217;s media in-charge and convener Pankaj Joshi.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The official announcement is yet to be made by the BJP, but sources said that Rashmi\u2019s name has been finalized after discussing the nomination of at least three other candidates including Dhabai.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The names of Sheel Dhabai, Rashmi Saini, and Sukhpreet Bansal were frontrunners. Although there was an agreement on Sheel Dhabai, but on Friday morning the party decided to field Rashmi. However, the party has got the forms filled out by the four councillors Sukhpreet Bansal, Sheel Dhabai, Rashmi Saini and Bharti Lakhyani.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Saini is currently the chairman of a JMC Greater committee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Congress had two separate meetings till late Thursday evening. In this, everyone unanimously agreed on the name of Hema Singhania. The BJP currently 85 seats, while Congress 40. There are 12 independent seats.
