@Badech was showing WP:OWN on both Jawahar Singh and Suraj Mal. He was given ample warning. When his edits were reverted on Jawahar Singh. He created the first two socks and tried to revert back to his own desired version. He was given WP:SOCK warnings on both of his socks. So he stopped on that page. Meanwhile Suraj Mal page was protected with extended confirmed protection. He didn't have 500 edits hence he started editing random edits. He completed 500 edits in last two hours for taking the Suraj Mal page to his desired version, for this he made random 40-50 edits. He created 6 more sock sock3 to sock9 and made random edits from these socks on Battle of Bagru only to revert them by himself. All these nine socks are created within 2-3 hours.

 * I admit that I used the listed socks for edit warring which has already got me blocked for one week: . I have also realised the naivety and silliness of this policy violation from my side. From now on, I will make sure to discuss the content of articles with others in place of edit warring. As one can check, I have not used any of those accounts before or after that particular day. So please either tag those accounts as mine or block them because they have been abandoned by me forever and I will not be using any other account in the future. Finally, I apologise for this mistake. Basedch (talk) 08:18, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

 * Moved from the talk page. Not sure why this was there, but please make sure to file cases in the Wikipedia: namespace, otherwise they will go unnoticed. --Blablubbs (talk) 09:46, 12 March 2022 (UTC)

 * All of the above are ✅, plus:
 * Noting that quite apart from the edit warring, some of these have already been blocked as vandalism-only accounts; I'm therefore not prepared to take the master's assertion that they will stop behaving like this at face value. I will indef block and tag all accounts. Girth Summit  (blether)  13:58, 12 March 2022 (UTC)
