Map[edit]

I have restored the map which was originally there, as it is more appropriate for this article. The current map may seem a little odd as there is only one formerly BJP-rules state as of now (Delhi), but I feel that it makes more general sense. Bharatiya 29 09:32, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Now..bjp is ruling the MP. Can u tell where i found t app or tool to color the map. Manish9893 (talk) 16:10, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing issues[edit]

I noticed this list during my FLC review for List of chief ministers from the Indian National Congress. That article uses worldstatesmen.org as a source, which was deprecated in a 2020 RfC. The same issue occurs here – since there are minimal in-text citations, the tables are presumed to be sourced from an unreliable website. Is anyone interested in working to fix the sourcing? I was going to take this to WP:FLRC but wanted to provide an opportunity to fix it before that. RunningTiger123 (talk) 05:52, 10 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Since there has been no apparent effort to fix these issues, I plan to create a FLRC nomination for the list. Please feel free to add comments there. RunningTiger123 (talk) 18:43, 15 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
