Regarding my edit on Rafale deal controversy
Hi, I just wanted to thank you for reverting part of my edit on the aforementioned page, I was attempting to remove a duplicate statement that was already mentioned in another section but it appears that I accidentally made the edit on an older version of the page which led to the addition of previously removed content. I would like to reiterate that the paragraph you removed was not my edit but an edit done by who has been adding content that does not adhere to NPOV guidelines for a while now. Regards.

I hope the relevant references are sufficient to prove added statements. That should be sufficient to establish a point of view, however inconvenient.User:Yoddha1
