Q4: Why aren't there sections on science and technology, education, media, tourism etc?
A4: New sections require talk-page consensus. In archived discussions, it was decided to keep them out. Consider expanding their respective daughter articles, such as History of India, instead. See WP:WPC.
Q5: Why was my image or external link removed?
A5: To add or remove images and links, start a thread on this page first. See WP:FP?, WP:IMAGE, and WP:EL.
Q6: The map is wrong!
A6: The map shows the official (de jure) borders in undisputed territory and the de facto borders and all related claims where there's a dispute; it cannot exclusively present the official views of India, Pakistan, or China. See WP:NPOV.
Q7: India is a superpower!
A7: Consult the archives of this talk page for discussions of India's status as a superpower before adding any content that makes the suggestion. See WP:DUE.
Q8: Delhi is a state!
A8: To create an Indian state, the Parliament of India must pass a law to that effect—see Articles 2 through 4 of the Constitution of India, full text here. The Sixty-ninth Amendment, which was enacted in 1991, added Article 239AA to the constitution. It proclaimed the National Capital Territory of Delhi, gave it a legislative assembly, and accorded it special powers that most union territories lack. But Delhi was not made a state. Several crucial powers were retained by the central government, such as responsibility for law and order; nor does Delhi have a governor; instead, a lieutenant governor presides. Unlike Himachal Pradesh, which gained statehood in 1970, and Goa, which gained it in 1987, Delhi continues to be listed as a union territory by the First Schedule.
Q9: Add Hindi as the national language/hockey as the national sport!
A9: Hindi is the official language, not national language. There is no national language, but there are constitutionally recognized languages, commonly known as Schedule 8 languages. English also serves as a subsidiary official language until the universal use of Hindi is approved by the states and parliament.

The following paragraph on lead should be modified:-
"A pioneering and influential nationalist movement emerged, which was noted for nonviolent resistance and became the major factor in ending British rule.[53][54] In 1947 the British Indian Empire was partitioned into two independent dominions,[55][56][57][58] a Hindu-majority Dominion of India and a Muslim-majority Dominion of Pakistan, amid large-scale loss of life and an unprecedented migration.[59]"
It fails to mention Mahatma Gandhi who led the "nonviolent resistance". He was mentioned until 2019.[1]
"Hindu majority" with "Dominion of India" is wrong, because India did not support religion based partition. We can also remove "Muslim-majority" for Pakistan if necessary.
"large-scale loss of life and unprecendented migration" is also wrong, because violence was expected and arrangements were made to quell violence before migration happened.[2][3]
I believe this part should be modified to:-
"A pioneering and influential nationalist movement led by Mahatma Gandhi emerged, which was noted for nonviolent resistance and it became the major factor in ending British rule.[53][54] In 1947 the British Indian Empire was partitioned into two independent dominions,[55][56][57][58] Dominion of India and Dominion of Pakistan.[59]"
I'm fine with adding Mahatma Gandhi. I think we should keep "Hindu-majority" and "Muslim-majority" because that was the basis for partition. And, we should keep the loss of life and migration because they were significant, perhaps the most salient, aspect of partition and the emergence of the two nations. --RegentsPark (comment) 14:39, 11 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

India is the worlds most populous country now. It needs to be edited as the worlds most populous Correctorofmistakes1 (talk) 04:28, 26 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Do you think we should add at the top, "India is a developing country ranked 132nd in the Human Development Index". There is no mention of India's economic or developmental status in the entire lead, in all the countries articles it is mentioned what is the economic / development of the country . what do you think?

India to surpass China as most populous country in 2023, UN report says[edit]
Change "It is the seventh-largest country by area, the second-most populous country, and the most populous democracy in the world." to "It is the seventh-largest country by area, the most populous country, as well as most populous democracy in the world." India is now the most populous country according to UN and many other prominent sources. [1]Indo British Wikipedian (talk) 07:07, 31 January 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
@Indo British Wikipedian: You're being selective with your quotation. The sources you give state "India set to surpass...", where "set to surpass" ≠ "has surpassed". So currently, it is not the most populous country in the world. When it is, and you can provide more than one reliable source stating that it is, then the article can be changed.
