Please sign your posts. II won't add any reference to Wikipedia that is in all caps. Additionally this a press release about a coffee table book published by the Times Group. Please don't bring content sourced to press releases; it is promotional. We have talked about this before - please try to avoid sourcing content in Wikipedia to press releases. Thanks.

Edit request - 10 June 2016

Mr RD 23:12, 9 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Kindly add the following to the Investigations and legal challenges section before last paragraph (After The notice informed all other buyers, who were not yet part ...):

In May 2016, a group of buyers of Raheja Atharva and Raheja Vedanta who had filed the petitions on behalf of 130 buyers claimed that they have reached out of court settlement after meeting Additional Chief Secretary (town and country planning) in Chandigarh.[1][2]

Mr RD 23:05, 9 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Objection to the above Edit Request - The news summary from the article is selective, and deliberately misleading. A perusal of the full article in Hindustan Times shows that only some buyers in project Vedanta have settled, and NONE of those in Atharva have withdrawn cases. Further, only a majority of buyers in Vedaanta have settled, not all as the summary in the "edit request" posits. Also, the article in Punjab Kesri is very clear on it, and does not even mention the Atharva project at all, though both articles are reporting of the same press conference. The relevant lines from the Hindustan Times article are

Headline - Homebuyers in Raheja Vedanta, Gurgaon, reach settlement with builder, will withdraw court cases (It does not mention Atharva, and none of the buyers from Atharva have settled.)
Apartment owners of Raheja Vedanta had approached the Delhi High Court (The news report is wrong as the case has not been filed in Delhi High Court, but in Punjab & Haryana High Court.)
However, on Friday, Joe Saggar and Raj Kumar Khanna, who had filed the petitions on behalf of 130 buyers claimed that they have reached out of court settlement. (For clarity, there are 2 cases filed by buyers of Vedaanta against Raheja Developers - one in Punjab & Haryana High Court by Joe Saggar & Raj Khanna ONLY, and another by 130 buyers which includes Joe & Raj in National Consumer Disputes Redressal Commission, NCDRC. The case by Joe & Raj has been withdrawn from the P&H High Court, but the case still is continuing at the NCDRC with little over half of the 130 members dropping out with Joe & Raj. It is misleading to imply that all 130 buyers have settled.)
A majority of the 130 litigants has agreed to the settlement after the builder agreed to their demands, Khanna said. (A MAJORITY of the buyers have settled, not ALL as the Edit Request is stating.)

Mr RD is in possession of the full facts as he is in direct touch with the builder. He has deliberately chosen some sentences, and suppressed others, to give an impression that is at odds with the reality that he is fully aware of.

The actual situation, not for posting on Wikipedia, but to understand the news reporting and Mr RD's misleading Edit Request is as follows.

Raheja Atharva buyers (numbering 103) have filed a case in Punjab & Haryana High Court, and also a case at the National Consumer Disputes Resolution Commission. Not a single person has withdrawn here.
Raheja Vedaanta buyers numbering 130 have filed a case in NCDRC, and about 70 of them have withdrawn their case, while the case is continuing on behalf of the others. Raheja Vedaanta buyers Joe Saggar & Raj Khanna had filed a case in P&H High Court which they have withdrawn, but on May 24, 2016 five other buyers from the group of remaining at NCDRC have taken the same complaint of Joe & Raj and after adding more grievances filed a new case at the P&H High Court against Raheja Developers.

Not only is Mr RD's edit misleading about the real situation, it is also misleading summary of the newspapers that it purports to refer. Leoaugust (talk) 04:13, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hm. The request does seem to be a misrepresentation of what the report says, although there are also potential issues on the other "side" of the argument because Leoaugust is providing competing info that may be correct but is unsourced. Fortunately, we know that there is only one decent newspaper in India and it is not the Hindustan Times - basically, we should pretty much discount anything not reported by The Hindu. The pair of you might nonetheless benefit from a read of WP:VNT ... and Mr RD really should consider withdrawing entirely from this article because their paid conflict of interest is now blatantly affecting their efforts here. Leoaugust has claimed not to have a conflict but that, too, is beginning to appear suspect.

Is there not some middle ground here? Could we say something that emphasises some people have settled, for example? - Sitush (talk) 06:02, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Sitush thanks for commenting. Just a couple of procedural notes. Mr RD has every right to post suggestions on Talk and indeed that is what we want paid editors to do. And Leoaugust has declared a COI (see tags at top) and is also welcome to comment here on the talk page. Will look at the request and reply in a moment... Jytdog (talk) 06:11, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I am well aware of the procedure but when it descends to this level of misrepresentation it is scary. The only positive is that we have one from each side, fighting each other. - Sitush (talk) 06:27, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, firstly, I'm not in direct contact with Raheja Developers as said by LeoAugust. I'm hired by a PR agency who work on their behalf. I've disclosed the name of the person who hired me. I am not entirely aware about the the legal proceedings and their numbers like any of you except Leo who happens to know these information. I'm not even sure if they are right or wrong. Therefore, I can not comment on that. As far as my request go, I specifically quoted a group which represented the buyers (By that I mean, Joe Saggar and Raj Kumar Khanna, who had filed the petitions on behalf of 130 buyers as mentioned in the news article). On other issue I also tried to see the govt. website in this matter regarding the number of cases. The website appears to be outdated to me as no recent legal proceedings were recorded in there. To me this issue seems like more of government infrastructure related than the fault of buyer (but again who am I to decide?). Mr RD 19:31, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I am still looking at this and the current content in our article about this. pls be patient. Jytdog (talk) 19:37, 10 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
And Mr RD, appreciate your reply. Can you please take this opportunity to check the facts with Raheja Developers? There is no reason why you cannot seek clarification from the PR Agency/ Raheja Developers once this matter has been raised. The aim is to verify the information once an objection has been raised. Thanks. Leoaugust (talk) 07:53, 11 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
And a couple of articles referenced on the WikiPage of Raheja Developers seem to have been removed from the Forbes website. Seems that the PR Agency is doing its job well :-) The removed articles and the buyer comments can be seen archived at Archive.Org
