For the same reason as the other images deleted previously. Some of these images are in a high-security setting which would mean that Narendra Modi's personally-employed photographer (if such a person exists) might not be allowed access to them. Other images have logos in prominence whose copyrights rest with either the Government of India or Bharatiya Janata Party. The images of Anandiben Patel are again cropped from images in which the Prime Minister is himself present.

The claimed author is part of the photographs:

Suspicious or no metadata available for

Most of these files have unbelievably low resolutions to be a 21st century original image.

Files like

are either official Indian government events where the Prime Minister is unlikely to be sitting as a mere photographer while the Finance Minister presides or an international event like the East Asia Summit where his personal photographer will hardly be allowed. These can at best be Government of India works which cannot be in public domain so soon as per Template:PD-India. Also

has a clear Indian Government art work (the calendar) in prominence which is certainly not copyfree.

Other images in this category have been previously deleted by sysops User:Jcb and User:Daphne Lantier. In summary, we need a thorough review of files coming from this Flickr user and should immediately suspend further uploads from this account pending the completion of such a review.

For the same reasons as the previous nominations. Some of the files have very suspicious metadata and low file sizes.

For similar reasons as in previous nominations from the category (all deleted). Also, File:Indian medal winners at the Special Olympic World Summer Games 2015.jpg has image credits to "Special Olympics Bharat Facebook page" while File:Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi in Rajya Sabha.jpg is a grab of official television recordings of Rajya Sabha.

Same reasons as for previous nominations. Many files have suspicious metadata and very low filesizes. Some others are derivative works with no proper attribution/reference to the original work and their copyright status.

Same reasons as before. Few files are screen grabs of Lok Sabha Television footage while others are screenshots of private apps like Instagram, Weibo etc.

  • Keep majority of them. Most of their previous images were low-res screenshots or instagram pics but a majority have exif information which means they were taken by actual cameras and thus they should be kept, delete the low res ones that don't look like they were taken with a camera or lack exif information, keep the rest.--Stemoc 22:11, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@Stemoc: With due respect, the mere presence of EXIF data itself does not make the copyright ownership clear. More so, if these happen to be works of a Government of India employee(s) in which case the Prime Minister himself/herself does not have the power to release the files into public domain without bringing necessary changes in Indian laws. There is also the issue of false claim of authorship with most of these files. Best Regards, Rahul Bott (talk) 12:02, 5 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

More. Many are rightly unused with just some text and an uncredited portrait photograph as substantial part. Some are crops from already deleted files.

The files have no evidence of their copyright owner as Narendra Modi (Prime minister-India). There is clear Flickr washing. Most of the images have been deleted before for the same reason. Another set of deletion can be found at Commons:Deletion requests/Files uploaded by Bharatiya29 and Commons:Deletion requests/File:Former cricketer Anil Kumble meets PM Modi.jpg.

Comment: Except for files like File:Constituent Assembly of India logo.jpg which are clearly PD-India. -- Rahul Bott (talk) 12:08, 20 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Undeleted per UDR since we now have {{GODL-India}}. Please feel free to re-nominate any file if GODL-India does not apply. I have left all the files in the GODL-India review category. Jcb (talk) 11:30, 21 July 2018 (UTC)[reply]
