It is good that Shrini is taking suggestions, and as far as I can see, Bodhi's comment is also a suggestion on what he thinks, but no pushing. Everybody has a "first time" to do things. However, I am sure that Bodhi, along with other Wikimedians, has enough experience and expertise to handle things.
Also there is no such thing as ownership for such matters. The community itself holds the ownership. Bodhi, and the rest of all who are there, are only the organizers, who are making things possible for WLM to happen in India. If you feel that something is going wrong about the project, please point that out, the organizers will be happy to correct that. It is not the case of same of set of people or an organization doing it every time. In 2016 it was organized by some, 2017 by different people, 2018 by a another set of Wikimedians, and next year, anyone can take the lead to organize. In the same way, this year these people have taken the lead.
