These quotes by Narendra Modi and Tavleen Singh were deleted without explanation:

  • People of India have seen obstacles of past 55 years and they have seen optimism of our 55 months. They have seen 55 years of Family First and 55 months of India First. ... We stand for democracy, they stand for dynasty, we stand for India First, they stand for Family First.
  • This is why it has been so astonishingly easy for the Gandhi dynasty to turn India’s oldest political party into a family firm. And once dynastic succession became acceptable at the highest levels of political power, it became impossible to prevent dynastic democracy spreading like a slow poison into the very soul of India. ... India’s ‘tryst with destiny’ could more appropriately have been called India’s tryst with dynasty.
    • Singh, T. (2016). India's broken tryst. Noida, Uttar Pradesh, India : HarperCollins Publishers India, 2016.
  • Dynasty, a political tool in the hands of the ruling class, has become the catalyst for a new colonization of a country whose soul has already been deeply scarred by centuries of it.
    • Singh, Tavleen (2017). Durbar.

Akhiljaxxn said: "explained already on edit summary. Indirect political statements and other indirect references are not Quotes"

But these are very clearly quotes and they are not indirect statements : they refer clearly to the Nehru–Gandhi family and dynasty. And you have also removed some of the same quotes from the article on Indian National Congress.--დამოკიდებულება (talk) 16:57, 4 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Akhiljaxxn, if you have a concern about neutrality, if that is your concern, then selected quotes can be added to achieve neutrality. Please let me know if I can help you in doing that. --დამოკიდებულება (talk) 21:44, 4 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
There has been no reply from Akhiljaxxn for 5 days. While Akhiljaxxn has been claiming that quotes on dynasty politics is biased, Akhiljaxxn has been writing that Modi is a fascist Nazi. When he such "spreads their hatred" for the Indian Prime Minister, he cannot complain about dynasty quotes.
Comments about dynasty politics in India are very common, so there is no question that they should be mentioned either on this page or on the Indian National Congress page.
Where there is a dispute, and there is no consensus , the status quo ante (the state before the edit war) must be restored. The edit war started with Akhiljaxxn's removal. (actually it started with Akhiljaxxn's removal of the Sonia Gandhi quote, his later removals on other articles followed the same pattern of removing quotes about Congress politicians). That is how a consensus-based process works. --დამოკიდებულება (talk) 09:20, 8 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
