I have removed the sub-section discussing the Lalit Modi had sought recusal of Jaitley from the three-member Disciplinary Committee. These kind of individual comments and criticisms which are not very important need not be a part of a BLP. I would also request if someone could take the initiative to shorten the Role as strategic planner of BJP and merge them into one describing his role as a strategic planner of the legislative assembly election leader.- Mohit Singh (talk) 17:20, 21 May 2013 (UTC)

Controversies and Criticism

If Jaitley was the center of the controversy it would behoove such a section. At this point, the section was merely a Soapbox for random political statements made by Congress politicians.Pectore^talk 04:46, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

This was not soapboxing. Jaitley's criticism of any congress leader can be put on their BLP and that still would not be soapboxing. Soham321 (talk) 17:36, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

His comments on people on the other side of the political spectrum are not relevant to his notability. The converse is also true, that the material removed, ie comments on him by Congress politicians, are a minuscule component to why he is famous.Pectore^talk 22:16, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Arun Jaitely has been associated with BCCI and has been President of DDCA during his association with BCCI lot of controversies have taken place these need to be mentioned . — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kallianpur (talk • contribs) 17:51, 18 December 2015 (UTC)

Criticism by Lalit Modi

Former IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi's criticism of Arun Jaitley has been removed by User:MohitSingh on the ground that it is not suitable for an entry in a W{:BLP. I disagree completely. This was a public clash involving a cash rich and highly controversial cricket tournament (which was recently in the news following a corruption scandal) which remains a talking point in the media. I request User:MohitSingh to re-consider his removal of the edit and to put it back himself. For other interested parties, i am reproducing the entire edit below:

• Former IPL Commissioner Lalit Modi has sought recusal of Jaitley from the three-member Disciplinary Committee probing charges of irregularities against him in the conduct of the cash-rich T20 cricket tournament. Citing principle of natural justice, a defence team representing the former IPL head has accused Jaitley of being a complainant in Kochi franchise dispute involving Modi and objected to his being one of the Disciplinary Committee members. Jaitley has denied being involved with the Kochi franchise in any way, and the BCCI has rejected the demand for Jaitley's recusal. According to Lalit Modi, Jaitley harbors "personal malice and enmity" against him. Modi has also listed six instances of alleged violations of the BCCI's rules and regulations for administrators by Jaitley. The references are:

Wikipedia is not a forum to put each and every news related to a person. Please refer to this: Wikipedia is not a newspaper and WP:UNDUE. It clearly points out: If a viewpoint is held by an extremely small (or vastly limited) minority, it does not belong in Wikipedia regardless of whether it is true or not and regardless of whether you can prove it or not, except perhaps in some ancillary article. What you are suggesting to put on the BLP is just one isolated event. It does not have that substantial value that it may be put on a BLP. It does not have any biographical value. It would not serve the purpose of a BLP. However if this incident turns into a very major event that it has some biographical value, you are most welcome to put it. - (talk) 23:04, 22 May 2013 (UTC)

Considering that this incident was reported prominently by all major publications in India, on what basis do you say it is not of 'substantial value that it may be put on a BLP'. Soham321 (talk) 04:03, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

It was not a prominent reporting but reporting by prominent publications. Now a days every news report gets this kind pub publication. This does not make every random event with no great significance on once life to be included in his BLP. In light of the points already discussed, I guess we should end the discussion unless any new point is raised.- Mohit Singh (talk) 14:13, 23 May 2013 (UTC)

The incident is barely germane to Jaitley's notability. Agree with Mohit Singh in that Wikipedia biographies do not need to cover every controversy a person is involved in.Pectore^talk 23:28, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Should Indian cricket team's reaction to his death be added?

The Indian cricket team, currently on tour in West Indies, decided to sport black arm bands during the third day of the test match today, as a mark of respect for Arun Jaitley, who was an influential figure in cricket administration in India in the 2000s (apart from being a major political figure in more recent times). I think this is relevant information about the man and it should be a part of the article. I'd like to pick the brains of more experienced Wikipedia on this matter, though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theintuitus (talk • contribs)

No, IMHO we should avoid. At max we can add one word in the form of. His death was condoled by X, Y Z and Indian cricket team. nothing more than this. every tom dick and harry is condoling his death, we cannot possibly add them, allthough a reliable source for everyone exists.--DBigXrayᗙ 17:29, 24 August 2019 (UTC)

See, the Indian cricket team doesn't sport black bands during play over small things. It's a very rare occurrence. I think it's rather significant, what they did. It points to how big a figure Arun Jaitley was in Indian cricket. I think it should get a one-line mention, at the very least. Karan (Theintuitus) (talk) 18:23, 24 August 2019 (UTC)

Not so rare. I have seen the MeninBlue frequently sport it. You are free to add a word or a short sentence. Use the Indiatoday link as ref. regards.--DBigXrayᗙ 06:17, 25 August 2019 (UTC)
