 * Something weird is happening on my PC - not sure whether it's a problem with the scripts, or with my internet connection, but SPIhelper isn't working for me. This is ducky enough to block; there aren't any other accounts that I can see on CU. Please could the next clerk who looks at this tag as proven and close?

Both the user the sockmaster and the suspected user have removed references initially. The sockmaster, another blocked sock account ProfShinde and the user mentioned have common interest that is Politics of Maharashtra. Both accounts continuously arguing that edits made by him is correct and the one who reverted is wrong. One more thing have a look at the names of the accounts. It clearly indicates the user's choice. ''Shinde is CM of Maharashtra and leader of Shiv Sena. The previous names and this name Maha Sainik all are in the same category. Maha from Maharashtra and Sainik is from ShivSainik- The term used to describe the workers of Shiv Sena''.  Shaan Sengupta <i style="color:#FF7518;">Talk</i> 11:34, 9 August 2023 (UTC)

 * I can see from looking at contribution histories that Maha Sainik made many edits on the Maharashtra Legislative Assembly and the 14th Maharashtra Legislative Assembly, whilst Prof Shinde made many edits on Balasahebanchi Shiv Sena (a political party linked to Maharashtra) which demonstrates a common interest in the politics of Maharashtra.


 * please could you provide some diffs of edits by Maha Sainik and Prof Shinde demonstrating the similarity you noticed in the way they have been arguing that edits made by him is correct and the one who reverted is wrong. -- Toddy1 (talk) 21:45, 9 August 2023 (UTC)
 * @Prof Shinde didn't get any warning but his stock master @Crompton editz got. @Maha Sainik and Crompton editz talk pages shows same type of replies to notices. Like arguing that they are right. See User talk:Crompton editz and [Revision as of 16:33, 8 August 2023]. The user (Maha Sainik) has very smartly blanked his talk page. Both also have a habit of giving short replies sometimes. One-liners. Both accounts have also accused the opposite party of using powers to fulfill political goals. This too can be seen in talk pages.

 * I am a genuine person and I was trying to correct the misinformation spread by Shaan Sengupta. Anyone master at all this should check my IP address or any other details. Also anyone can investigate my activities. My side is truth's side. It is really very very saddening that some people are spreading misinformation just for their political advantage. Shaan Sengupta demanded references and then I provided best references claiming my numbers. But again my information is reverted and misinformation is being spread again just to satisfy the ego. Please investigate my account and IP Address. Thank you Maha Sainik (talk) 04:27, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
 * This user @Maha Sainik is continuously making personal attacks and accusing me od spreading misinformation. The references added by him are unconfirmed and reports. I would request him to show offical statement by Raj Bhavan as he is claiming. Those are just reports and inputs from unnamed sources.  Shaan Sengupta <i style="color:#FF7518;">Talk</i> 04:54, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
 * I didn't made any personal attack on anyone, I just want to show that how misinformation is spread on such an important page. I would request Mr. Shaan Sengupta to show the affidavits of 19 MLAs provided to EC. No affidavits are provided to EC. It is just said by Jayant Patil that We have 19 Affidavits. I can show the references that most of the MLAs have switched to Ajit Pawar camp that Shaan Sengupta is claiming that they are in support of Sharad Pawar. If they had affidavits, why would they told EC that there is no split in the NCP Party.

 * This is your sock investigation. Donot put these things here. It should be discussed only at talk pages. Just for a moment Even if I am wrong won't prove that you are not a sock. And you are asking me about EC affidavit. Has ECI or MAHARASHTRA RAJ BHAVAN or MAHARASHTRA ASSEMBLY or any OFFICE of GOVERNMENT of MAHARASHTRA has ever released the numbers?  Shaan Sengupta <i style="color:#FF7518;">Talk</i> 05:18, 10 August 2023 (UTC)


 * @Shaan SenguptaHave EC released any numbers ? So, why are you referring to an article which says it is just said by Jayant Patil. It is there in news and I have provided all I can to show that my information is totally correct. How can you neglect such important references ? Maha Sainik (talk) 05:25, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
 * I request SPI Clerk to ckeck my identity, my account, my activities & ip address. I am a genuine wikipedia user created my account to edit the misinformation by some people. My side is truth's side and I stand stong because of it. This is a personal & mental attack on a genuine wikipedia user like me so I sincerely request SPI Clerk to check my details. Thank you Maha Sainik (talk) 05:47, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
 * I am once again telling you this is a sock investigation. Not a report of Edit warring or vandalism. Please discuss this only on talk page.  Shaan Sengupta <i style="color:#FF7518;">Talk</i> 06:01, 10 August 2023 (UTC)
