Indic Scripts
Please do not add Indic Scripts (whether it is Bengali, Hindi, Tamil etc.) to the lead or infobox of any India-related Wikipedia article like Kolkata Metro because while it may be added in good faith, it goes against Wikipedia's WP:INDICSCRIPT policy (which I would advise you to read carefully) which states that Indic scripts should NOT be added to the lead or infobox of any India-related Wikipedia articles. Repeated edits like this which violate Wikipedia's policies could border on disruptive editing and may risk getting you blocked from editing, many thanks.

 * I can understand the point being made here. In fact, I have spent a fair amount of time reading through the nitty-gritties of the specified policy. Metro railway is a mode of conveyance. As a matter of of fact, it is not included inside subject matters covered of the subsection scope of the specified policy. A through read of the actual conversation carried out by users would reveal that the main loci of problem were articles related to people. Interestingly, the article itself mentions "The following rules do not claim to be the last word." Regardless, there is no scope of confusion regarding which language to be mentioned as supporting for the mentioned article. For a city with a majority of speakers of the concerned language and system on so, there is no scope of confusion. The law in itself is restrictive and, in my humble opinion, discriminatory. By the constitutional definition of India, it is union of states and each state has its own official language and so on. If there can be provision for adding native language names in similar situations (for example, for places in Europe), there should be similar for states of India. Regardless, I am least bothered to open this up for a review or something similar. I will respect this rule since, as it appallingly turns out, there is policing over obviousness using loaded rules. I will although add the native name inside a paragraph that is neither the lead nor the infobox - until the day some people again gather to ban so.
