Birth date
Note 'a' states: "The birth date on his passport, 20 November 1932, has been used." However the article now states the birth date as 20 November, 1929, so the Note needs to be edited accordingly to match. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2405:201:4013:b07b:9e2:cfaf:bf2:ec87 (talk)
 * Thanks IP user, it has been fixed now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by KyloRen3 (talk • contribs)
 * Would you able to provide the citations where the passport date is sourced from? All the sources, regarding his death, state he is 91 - which would mean they all use 1929 and not 1932. I think we should use what the RS use. -- DaxServer (talk) 17:28, 19 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi, I'm new to the page too. I just picked up what previous editors have stated in the note. But yes, I do agree with you, and for the time being I will change it back to 1929 as per all the RS from the last couple of days. We can continue the discussion here.

Nationality in Infobox
Nationality was removed from infobox per WP:INFONAT in Special:Diff/1029559303. Based on the birth place, it is difficult, as it would be the present-day Pakistan and not India. It would be better to restore it. (Ping @AllegedlyHuman) -- DaxServer (talk) 19:01, 20 June 2021 (UTC)
