Lucknow, Nov 27: Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee today dismissed media reports that his niece Karuna Shukla is a candidate for chief ministership of Chhattisgarh. "She (Karuna) is not even a candidate and there is no question of her becoming chief minister of Chhattisgarh," he told.

"These are wrong impressions which have been reported in a section of press. This needs to be corrected," Vajpayee said.
