Improved to Good Article status by Krishna Chaitanya Velaga (talk). Self-nominated at 03:20, 29 March 2017 (UTC).
A Good Article promoted by the nominator, well written, Earwig check returned similarities which relate to two quotes (of which one is a long one - both presented as quotes in the article), hooks cited inline, QPQ done. All hooks are good, but I would suggest the original hook. Good for promotion. jojo@nthony (talk) 07:39, 30 March 2017 (UTC)
Returned from prep due to close paraphrasing from the source. While blocks of text are quoted directly, the following extract was put into the main text of the article without quotes:- Source: Though mutilated beyond recognition, a few pages of the Gita that he always kept in his breast pocket and the empty leather holster of Tewari's pistol helped to identify the body.
- Article: Though it was disfigured beyond recognition, a few pages of the Bhagavad Gita that he always kept in his breast pocket, and the empty leather holster of his Tewari pistol, helped to identify the body.
