Very insulting name of the article

Please note that this comment was made by opposition party leader regarding the Prime Minister of India, Mr. Narendra Modi. I do not know what needs to be done now with this article or title, but please understand that this title itself is very insulting and can create lot of anger in people. Or is that the purpose of this article? Thank you. -- Abhijeet Safai (talk) 07:31, 26 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Chowkidar Chor Hai → Main Bhi Chowkidar – ==

As mentioned on the AfD, there are more than 30,00,000 results on Google news for "Main Bhi Chowkidar" but only 5,00,000 results for "Chowkidar Chor Hai".

Per WP:COMMONNAME, the page should be moved. This complies with WP:BLP because present title is just an absurd allegation by an opposition leader to the Prime minister of India, while proposed title "Main Bhi Chowkidar" is a self-admission by the Prime minister. 103.220.38.163 (talk) 13:26, 31 March 2019 (UTC)[reply]
