 * Symbol question.svg Article is expanded enough. I am not seeing the dates mentioned in the lead section in the source. The text is so similar to the sources that I have some close paraphrasing concerns. The hook is moderately interesting. QPQ is done. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 18:36, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I have removed the dates from the lead section and added a source for his tenure as a foreign secretary.  FITINDIA   19:01, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks. The middle paragraph might merit some rewriting so that it doesn't resemble the source so much, however. Jo-Jo Eumerus (talk, contributions) 19:13, 11 October 2017 (UTC)
 * I have tried to rewrite but most of the copyvio stuff are dates, places and posts held. Please do have a look. Thank you  FITINDIA   08:09, 12 October 2017 (UTC)
