Despite similar usernames, both trying to create promotional drafts for similar subjects with similar content, particularly Draft:Dev Shankar Prasad, Draft:Dev Shankar Prasad Cinematographer, and Draft:Cinematographer Dev Shankar Prasad.

 * I agree that these users are connected, but I don't think they have used multiple accounts abusively. To me it looks like a case of forgetting passwords (as from deleted contributions), the master stopped editing before the suspected sockpuppet started. The usernames are similar enough to assume good faith, so I'm closing this without action. If both users start editing at the same time, or one is blocked and the other starts editing again, feel free to re-report.

 * And to add, this doesn't mean that they shouldn't be blocked, its just that this is not the right place to deal with users when they haven't violated the sockpuppetry policy. Dreamy Jazz talk to me &#124; my contributions 20:09, 28 September 2020 (UTC)
