cursor placement

I know this might be a stupid question, but how does Blender know my intention of placing the cursor on the object and not in the 3D space

    HI abhi ,

    That is not a stupid question!

    It is set in your Preferences (and separately, for the Active Tool, in the Header):

    (Those two don't need to be the same, btw.)

    ohh, got it. Thank you so much. Also, this might be a personal question, but why do you have ' Select with mouse button" as Right, is it easier or is it something you have accustomed to

    I started out with Left Click Select, but after a few years, I switched to Selecting with Right and I find it better (takes a few days to get used to though). But it is mostly a personal preference, there is not a huge advantage of using one over the other.
