Talk:Karan Thapar

Untitled
The article mentions Hindustan Times as the second most widely read English daily in India, this is a factual error (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_newspapers_in_India_by_circulation).

fyi The photo of Karan needs to be tagged with a proper copyright / fair use notice, if it is a valid image. Leaving it untagged will lead to it being removed at some point. Bwithh 07:16, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

May this should go in Arjun Singh's page: Perhaps his most recent and famous interview has been with the Congress Minister for Human Resources Development Mr. Arjun Singh over the issue of increasing caste-based reservation quotas in all universities and institutions of higher education for the members of the Other Backward Classes (OBCs), at the expense of compromising merit. In the Interview with Thapar, at least seven questions were answered by Mr. Singh as "I don’t know" and many others by "I am a servant of the Parliament". The entire interview on IBN can be read here.

Protected edits
As per this conversation, I've removed some material from this article despite its being protected. Since his father has his own page, any discussion of his father's career should be on that page unless it's in relation to his son, while the final "widespread condemnation" paragraph - while it would be valid with reliable sources to show widespread media coverage of the issue - is potentially libellous without them. I appreciate this could be considered an abuse of sysop powers to make potentially controversial edits whilst the page is protected; if you have serious concerns about this, raise them on this talkpage, or if necessary at ANI. —  iride  scent  12:55, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
