Well known LTA Vandal see Long-term abuse/Bidhan Singh Stopped editing for some time, but returned in mid April 2020

Pattern

 * Attacks articles relating to Indian leaders - the President or Prime minister - naming Bidhan Singh as the future leader
 * Previous spates of vandalism always included:- (0120291)
 * Early edits this time included this same text, but has started to break them down using one or more of:-
 * Bidhan Singh
 * BidanSingh (without a space)
 * Singh, Bidan
 * 0120291
 * बिधान सिंह - (the Hindi for Bidhaan Lion or Bidhan Singh)
 * occasional petty edits - e.g. spaces or template date changes, especially when "trying out" a new article
 * Editing has very specific times and has evolved into a clear pattern
 * Edits 2 articles about 01.06 each day      - Earliest - 01.06 - Latest - 01.49 (usually 01.08- just very late one day)
 * Edits a different 2 articles at about 16.06 - Earliest - 16.05 - Latest - 16.18
 * From 23 May an additional time slot of 13.30, with one edit, was added
 * In July 2020 this changed to a first edit at 15.47 with no morning edits
