Variety of English edit
The header of the Talk section claims that the article is written in Indian English with its "own spelling conventions (colour, travelled, centre, analysed, defence)".
This comment is inaccurate,in particular with regard to spellings. The examples must have been given by an American. These spellings are used everywhere in the English-speaking world except in the USA. Dori1951 (talk) 19:08, 24 April 2021 (UTC)
Deletion of "ji" suffix in name edit
I have deleted the honorific suffix "ji" in Shastri's name on the three occasions I saw it in the the Early Years section and the one in the Jai Jawan Jai Kisan section. The main reason is better compliance with a NPOV. It is also not widely understood outside the Subcontinent and could be confusing for readers unconnected with the region.
For the same reason I deleted an instance of the use of "Shri" where it did not appear to be a quote. Dori1951 (talk) 19:08, 24 April 2021 (UTC)

The boxed quote appears five lines after it should, and splits the third paragraph. Prisoner of Zenda (talk) 12:09, 2 October 2022 (UTC)
