Date, length, hook, QPQ, paraphrase check ok. --Soman (talk) 22:56, 6 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Ashwin147 and Soman: Hi there! Perhaps you could tell me what you think of this hook? If not, that's all right:
- ALT1: ... that the president of India's official retreat was originally built as a summer camp for horses?
Feel free to rephrase, of course :) theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (she/her) 08:57, 12 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
- I went with the original hook because the fact that there is a third such retreat is not widely known - in fact the cited link says it's been overlooked to an extent that it doesn't even find a mention on the Rashtrapati Bhavan's website. The ALT1 seems to imply that there is only one retreat. Ashwin147 (talk) 07:31, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply
