Created by Insaafbarua (talk). Nominated by PratyushSinha101 (talk) at 04:56, 28 May 2018 (UTC).
@Insaafbarua and PratyushSinha101: Per a recent discussion over at WT:MOS, when mentioning Indian numbers such as lakh and crore in articles, it's suggested that either lakh/crore (crore in this case) be linked at the first mention in the article, or that a conversion to Western numbers be included at the first mention. I see that a conversion to 50 million is included in the infobox; however, I would suggest that it be added at the very least to the lead as well. Rest of the review to follow once this is addressed.

- @Narutolovehinata5:, I have linked the first mention of crore and included Western numbers in brackets after both mentions. Also made few more changes as per WP:MOS. Pratyush (talk) 05:22, 29 May 2018 (UTC)
Article is new enough, long enough, and adequately sourced. Free from plagiarism or copyright violations. Stable. Image is adequately licensed. Nominator's third nomination so no QPQ necessary. Hooks are cited and interesting. Good to go. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:34, 1 June 2018 (UTC)
