His religion, clan, etc. have been covered in reliable sources – e.g. see here – but I couldn't find self-identification from him, which is needed in BLPs (see here for details). So I will remove these details for now. Thanks. - NitinMlk (talk) 17:18, 21 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
"I am a Sikh myself..." - there is a sourced quote in the article, and his religion is very relevant to the topic. utcursch | talk 17:54, 21 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
utcursch, this BLP mainly revolves around the Operation Blue Star. Maybe he mainly got coverage relating to that event. So, irrespective of relevance of religion in his life & career, it is relevant to the present version of the article. Anyway, I was just concerned about the self-identification part, and don't have any issue now. In fact, I guess he even identified as a Jat Sikh – [1].
On a different note, MOS:SURNAME states that after the initial mention, a person should generally be referred to by surname only, and that's why I replaced K S Brar with Brar in this edit. Normally, after mentioning full name in the lead's first sentence, the remaining article just contains the person's surname. But you reinstated K S Brar with this edit. Was there any specific reason for that? - NitinMlk (talk) 17:37, 22 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
