Do not repeat the name of capital and largest city. Just do this for capital and largest city. 49.146.22.36 (talk) 06:12, 4 March 2023 (UTC)

and largest city 49.146.22.36 (talk) 06:12, 4 March 2023 (UTC) 
Not done: Your proposed change will display "Kolkata and largest city". Changing the "seat_type" to "Capital and largest city" would make the parameter too long. M.Bitton (talk) 13:55, 4 March 2023 (UTC)
