Please stay calm and civil while commenting or presenting evidence, and do not make personal attacks. Be patient when approaching solutions to any issues. Ifconsensus is not reached, other solutions exist to draw attention and ensure that more editors mediate or comment on the dispute.
Do we really need this section? I feel Gandhi was not an INC CM candidate for any of the the Assembly elections held in 2012, nor was he the main campaigner, as most of the major INC leaders campaigned equally. Please let me know your thoughts. Thanks in advance. 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS🍁 19:41, 22 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
The article currently states: " While at Harvard, Gandhi obtained a Master's degree in Economics." The citation is to this Guardian article (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2004/mar/22/india.randeepramesh) which provides no evidence that Rahul Gandhi earned at master's degree in economics at Harvard. This sentence should be deleted. Redgon (talk) 05:52, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Your addition misquoted him. None of the sources you cited establish that he said "we will set the whole country on fire". Cordless Larry (talk) 22:02, 18 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Rahul Gandhi has threatened, "If BJP wins these fixed elections, and changes the Constitution, the country will be on fire" at a rally while campaigning for the 2024 Indian parliamentary election[1][2][3][4]
There's an important difference between someone saying that something will be on fire and threatening to set it on fire! Cordless Larry (talk) 07:31, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes expressing fear, fear mongering and threatening are different different things. Bookku (talk) 07:39, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

It's not up to me to decide. Your addition has been reverted, so you need to establish consensus before trying again, but you should take into account the advice you've received at the Teahouse and on your user talk page. Personally, I'd drop it and move on to something else. Cordless Larry (talk) 11:11, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Hello @Haani40. Like I mentioned while reverting your edits, politicians in India make a lot of statements on a regular basis. Some find them controversial, while others support them. I was checking similar notes and found a statement by Amit Shah that "there will be communal riots in Karnataka if the Congress wins the Karnataka elections" or "If BJP Loses Bihar Elections, Crackers Will Go Off in Pakistan". It's very clear that such statements are made, especially by Indian politicians, purely based on winning elections. We are not supposed to include such parts only because you and I felt scared. Hope it helps! Thank you. 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS🍁 13:14, 19 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will be completely revamping the political and social views section. You may notice frequent removals and additions of new content. I would be very glad to receive suggestions. Thank you. 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS🍁 21:37, 24 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
