Indian general elections 1951–1971

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Unnecessary duplication and no logic to have a separate article. All information already there in the separate articles. So merge into Indian general election, 1951,Indian general election, 1957,Indian general election, 1962,Indian general election, 1967 and Indian general election, 1971.

 * Support Completely pointless when there are individual articles for the elections and a main Elections in India article. Number   5  7  11:51, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Comment - A prod of the article was previously contested because content had been copied from this article into other articles (I think the ones that Shyamsunder is suggesting a merge to, but I'm not sure). If content was copied, then the history needs to be kept somewhere, so the article can't be deleted.  Instead it could be redirected to one of the articles where content was merged (or anywhere else that is appropriate). Calathan (talk) 14:47, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Perhaps just redirect to Elections in India? Number   5  7  15:44, 28 April 2014 (UTC)
 * That looks like a good article to redirect to. Calathan (talk) 17:13, 28 April 2014 (UTC)

 * Comment, this article has served its purpose, no longer necessary to retain it. However, I insist that the complete result tables be retained in the corresponding articles on each election. --Soman (talk) 06:15, 29 April 2014 (UTC)
