Talk:List of state and union territory capitals in India

message: The dates mentioned in the list are inconsistent/incorrect.  Some mention dates before independence, some after.  If dates before independence are to be preferred, the following are incorrect:
# Andaman and Nicobar Islands: Port Blair has been the capital at least since 1875 when A&N was established as a Chief Commissioner's province.
# Delhi: Delhi has been a Chief Commissioner's Province since 1911/1912.
# Jammu & Kashmir: Srinagar and Jammu were the capitals long before 1948.  I do not know the correct date, but I have with me a book written in 1942 which mention those capitals.
# Madhya Pradesh: This is not an error. Nagpur was the capital of CP & Berar from 1903 onwards and probably should be mentioned in the Former Capital column.
# Tamil Nadu: Chennai (Madras) was the capital of the Madras Presidency from 1640 to 1947.
We need to be consistent and use all post-independence dates or use the correct pre-independence dates.
Also, see my comment of the classification of the NCT of Delhi at Talk:States and territories of India.

message: This list needs serious work to remain a WP:FL. The list has data which undergone many changes and seems very less informative now. The list gives out very less information apart some city names. --gppande «talk» 14:04, 23 June 2008 (UTC)

message: :Feel free to state your position on the renaming proposal by beginning a new line in this section with *Support or *Oppose, then sign your comment with ~~~~. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.
*Support: Indian can be ambiguous in page titles, for example, List of Indian chiefs is really about American Indian chiefs. Comparatively, India clearly is relatively less ambiguous: confusion may arise whether it is British India, Mughal India, Republic of India or India of which period is in the context. However, by default, it means Republic of India, which is a country today.--GDibyendu (talk) 13:40, 24 December 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Correct, this page specifically not only includes capitals, but focuses on them, giving to three different types of capitals. This is one of many lists of specific information on Indian states and union territories, all the ones listed in the box at the right of the article, from :Template:Lists of states and territories of India. —Largo Plazo (talk) 14:02, 4 June 2014 (UTC)
