Question

Can Sierra Six (one of the Gray Man novele by Mark Greaney) be added to the popular culture? CarverSindile (talk) 13:36, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes 2402:8100:2632:1FC0:39B2:971:7EF3:3A30 (talk) 09:20, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sir can I want tiranga on my body when I die for my country..... 152.58.21.102 (talk) 07:23, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding R&AW's logo/seal/emblem

There is no official and concrete evidence that the image currently used in infobox is the logo/seal/emblem of R&AW. If anyone has any information/sources, I'd love to see, for the meanwhile, I am removing the image. Thank you, User4edits (talk) 05:38, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Further, there are many anomalies in the image, as follows:

1. The logo does not conform to the design patterns used by Govt agencies. For example see [:File:Intelligence Bureau.svg].

2. Secondly, and a major issue -- in the image, the English texts precede Hindi version. This is impossible for any Govt bilingual logo. The Hindi text comes first.

3. Thirdly, it simply appears to be a novice attempt by some individual to give a graphic identity to the agency by downloading Indian National Emblem, putting it in two wheat braids, and put applicable text inside it.

Therefore, I am expecting some strong and concrete evidence other than re-use of the image by news outlets, or the usage of this image in web/tv series.

Thank you,User4edits (talk) 05:45, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Further, further,

The concerned individual seems to have made two logos, with same idea. The R&AW one,

and the Intelligence Bureau (India) one -- as can be seen here. Regards, User4edits (talk) 05:48, 16 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

every one wants a mohra to be played one game...I want to be that mohra for our country....but one wish when I die put my greatest tiranga on me.... 152.58.21.102 (talk) 07:29, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Where is the source about UAV program

There are no articles about it. सानू (talk) 16:49, 11 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Removal of reference to Hardeep Singh Nijjar Paragraph in Canada section

All the sources quoted in the article are not pointing to any R&AW involvement in the killing yet, then how can we have it on R&AW page. We already have Hardeep Singh Nijjar page and Killing of Hardeep Singh Nijjar which is a redirect. Is this not enough for accusations?? When some proof and more information is available regarding the killing we can add that to this article by citing sources directly pointing to R&AW. `~ᴀɴᴋʀᴀᴊ ɢɪʀɪ🎇✨ 04:52, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The said information must be kept in the article just like dozens of other instances of RAW activities in other countries that are mentioned in this very article. The text includes Indian govt.'s rejection of the accusation which is sufficient. | Pirate of the High Seas (talk) 07:19, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

You have not addressed the concerns I raised about RS.

All the sources quoted in the article are not pointing to any R&AW involvement in the killing yet, then how can we have it on R&AW page.

Now that another editor has undone my removal, let it be arbitrarily stay there. `~ᴀɴᴋʀᴀᴊ ɢɪʀɪ🎇✨( C • Talk ) 08:07, 27 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

One/two line is enough pointing to facts. Canada claimed that Nijjar (a khalistani separatist leader) was killed on Canadian soil by the Indian government (indirectly implicating R&AW). India has categorically denied such claims. with wikilinking to Nijjar and India Canada Row. No need to put an entire developing story in organisation wiki which is not even mentioned by name.

Motto

The attached reference for the motto explains the meaning of ‘Dharmo Rakshati Rakshitah,’ but it does not confirm if it is the agency’s official motto. Therefore, I am removing it for now. Please add only those references which confirm the agency’s motto, officially. Thank you. 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ^🍁 21:20, 13 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I discussed this a month ago: please do not add the agency motto until you have a source to justify it. I am removing it again; do not add it back unless you have a source.25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ^🍁 12:16, 25 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Motto at the worst situation to die and the happiness is surrounded by a tiranga and die as a warrior 152.58.21.102 (talk) 07:31, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Reference for the motto have been provided and added back. Thanks, Please feel free to ping/mention -- User4edits (T) 08:02, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The added reference requires a subscription, making it impossible to confirm which part of the reference supports the agency’s motto. Therefore, I kindly request that you add a reference that does not require a subscription. Thank you. 25 CENTS VICTORIOUS ^🍁 13:29, 13 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
