Mother
[edit]The article had a paragraph as follows (the part with strikethrough was deleted by an editor whose edit summary was "WP:COATRACK"):[1]
- Abhijit is the son of VS Chandralekha, a former civil servant,
who resigned in 1992 after an acid attack on her in Chennai, allegedly by AIADMK members.[1][2]

The first citation says: Abhijit will head to Chennai to meet his mother VS Chandralekha, Tamil Nadu’s first Woman collector and a close associate of Subramanian Swamy.
The second citation appears to be a 29 November 1996 India Today article that says: former AIADMK minister and secretary of the party's Chennai district unit, E. Madhusoodanan... has been taken into custody in connection with an acid attack case in Chennai in 1992 against the Janata Party's state unit president, V.S. Chandralekha.
The second citation makes no mention of Chandralekha's son. Nor does it say that she resigned.
The second citation has no business being left in the article if the information it is cited for is removed.
Whether the acid attack on V.S. Chandralekha belongs in an article on her son (Abhijit) is a difficult question. If a newspaper article about Abhijit had also mentioned the acid attack, there might be a case for including. But I do not think there is now.-- Toddy1 (talk) 20:49, 19 February 2023 (UTC)
pdf of court papers as a source
[edit]I have removed the following text, and the citation:
- He argued that Hinduism does not prohibit same-sex marriage and excluding the same from the Hindu Marriage Act of 1955 amounts to a violation of their freedom to practice their religion.[1]
References
- ^ "mitra-et-al" (PDF).

The citation is a 608 page pdf document of court papers. Yes, it does say that whoever wrote it thinks that Hinduism does not prohibit same-sex marriage. But in the bit I read, it did not explicitly say that Iyer-Mitra said or thought it (there are four petitioners and they have at least one lawyer). I did not find a bit saying that excluding the same from the Hindu Marriage Act of 1955 amounts to a violation of their freedom to practice their religion.-- Toddy1 (talk) 22:44, 25 February 2023 (UTC)
