Talk:Indian Foreign Service

message: *"There are almost 198 countries where India's embassy and consulate is in every country. Why is only the picture of "Embassy of India in Washington, D.C" onlybeing put up in IFS article. The Wikipedia is not a marriage advertisement and propaganda machine"
*"A superpower country like USA in its official United States Foreign Service article does not contain as much propaganda and pictures as much in a third world poor socialist country's Indian Foreign Service. Article is about diplomacy only not UN)"
*"Wikipedia is an encyclopedia. India is a stooge or ally of USSR "Russia" and never the US. The Wallstreet Journal clearly states that U.S. and India Aren’t Allies (http://blogs.wsj.com/indiarealtime/2014/02/18/why-the-u-s-and-india-arent-allies/)"
*"Are you employed by the Ministry of External Affairs or the Diplomats to do their HR and PR work in Wikipedia? India and US has never agreed on a single issue on diplomacy or international affairs which is why India is not in UNSC, IMF, World Bank and ADB"
Given the article is about an organization "entrusted to conduct diplomacy and manage foreign relations of India", I don't see a problem with having a picture of one of the service's embassies, IP's irrelevant rantings aside. If they don't like the picture of the embassy in the U.S., they can replace it with another one. --NeilN talk to me 12:46, 20 September 2014 (UTC)

message: Under the heading 'Major concerns and reforms' Indian Foreign Service officer Devyani Khobragade's controversies are mentioned in atleast three sub-sub-heads, which I think is one too many. I think her controversy can be relegated and confined to her own sub-sub-head which it has been, or the sub-sub-heads such as 'New York Consulate-General' ; 'Devyani Khobragade' and 'Amrit Lugun' could all be removed and their respective paragraphs could be shifted under the 'Maid Abuse and Sexual Scandal' super sub-head. Also, there are next to zero reforms that have been proposed in this article, so I think the term, 'Reforms' can be removed from the heading "Major Concerns and Reforms" leaving us with "Major Concerns" or it could be changed to "Problems plaguing the Indian Foreign Service" Wpakxl (talk) 20:57, 6 August 2022 (UTC)
