The Rahul2sawant account was created on 9 October 2014, editing mainly about two groups of schools in India. Yesterday they were blocked for UPE and using Wikipedia for promotion. They have since to Mindseed and VIBGYOR. Since Rahul2sawant was blocked, Prabat 21 - an account created on 6 March 2010 that was dormant apart from three edits in 2014 about schools in Bangalore suddenly came back to life yesterday, submitting Rahul2sawant's draft to AfC. I don't think this is a coincidence, and is probably Rahul Sawant evading their block. The other possibility is that it is a tag team. Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 12:25, 12 January 2022 (UTC)

 * The accused sock is aware of the investigation and has claiming that "Prabat 21 is different person" that they "asked to check the draft article". Curb Safe Charmer (talk) 15:22, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

 * Not only that article, but Prabat 21 also made edits on VIBGYOR articles. I have zero tolerance for this sort if thing, be it sock or meat. It took the master two years and finally an indef-block before they even started to admit any sort of COI, and even still I know they are only as minimally honest as they think is necessary. Wonder if there are more lurking? DMacks (talk) 15:03, 12 January 2022 (UTC)
 * There's no reason for CU here. Prabat started editing less than 3 minutes after Rahul filed their unblock request.  It doesn't get much duckier than that. -- RoySmith (talk) 21:18, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
