Respected/Honorable Bhai Jan,

We belong from Mariahun and know the Political stream of Mariahun, as we know you are supporting man not good for the Mariahun public and if he is good for the Mariahun their supporting people is not only with you but with another candidate also. They get money from your supported candidate/Party and do the convincing in day light..... in knight they get money to others and convince the people accordingly.

The people openly supports other party after getting money from the candidate you support. We have one question for you if you are supporting the candidate from "Apna Dal" then why you did not provide the ticket from your party "Kaumi Ekta Dal". These person are using your name and support to create their own business and save their own, they don't have any relation with Muslim Ideology and support.

These name are : (KAJAL STORE) N..... H..... (ANAM ENTERPRISES) H..... K... (STAR AGENCY) M......... Q...... (K.K ENTERPRISES) K..... K... G..... K.... S...... A.....

 AND SO MANY OTHER PERSON AND YOU KNOW BETTER THAN US.............

Hopefully you will do something better as Mariahun people needed

Hello, MPGuy2824 Check the above link of the article, it had abusive word for his grandfather that is bad. I request for blocking of the editor who did this. Please protect this article. - Botu Yadav ( talk) 14:55, 16 April 2022 (UTC) reply

Botu Yadav, The edit has been reverted and the IP has been warned. Wikipedia admins consider blocking a user only after 3 warnings are put up on their talk page and they still continue their behaviour. In the future, you too can undo such obvious vandalism. - MPGuy2824 ( talk) 02:15, 17 April 2022 (UTC) reply

Thank you MPGuy2824 — Botu Yadav ( talk) 05:08, 17 April 2022 (UTC) reply

What declares that he is a gangster do we have anything to prove it most of the other politicians are to having pending criminal charges that doesn't mean we can certify the as a criminal Haider AB rizvi ( talk) 09:01, 30 October 2022 (UTC) reply

Multiple cases of whitewashing this article, by removing sections devoted to his criminal background. Due to his recent death, this article has received high readership, and hence should be temporarily protected from edits. Smart Sherlock ( talk) 08:15, 30 March 2024 (UTC) reply

@ Kautilya3 I request the edits made in the recent days (ie after the 28th of March, 2024, the date of Mukhtar's death), be reverted. As per the log, numerous cases of edit-warring can also be seen. Smart Sherlock ( talk) 08:22, 30 March 2024 (UTC) reply

• I have EC protected the article due to editors like Smart Sherlock persistently insisting on poorly sourced additions of criminality. If that language is going in the opening sentence then it needs to be a lot better sourced than it is now. Black Kite (talk) 18:48, 30 March 2024 (UTC) reply

  Thanks for your consideration, but it seems you misinterpreted my request. I was AGAINST the REMOVAL of his criminal background. Mukhtar Ansari's past of being a gangster isn't any speculation, it is a fact. He was serving a jail sentence at the time of his death, for the murder of a political rival, as proved in court. Smart Sherlock ( talk) 05:07, 31 March 2024 (UTC) reply

  An entire section in the article, with 3 sources backing it, is devoted to his criminal life. Certain unverified accounts, created barely days ago, started vandalizing the article on 28/03/2024 (day of Mukhtar's death), by removing his criminality from the lead. Political bias was clearly shown, since the word "criminal" was replaced by "much loved politician". I would like to reiterate my request for the words regarding the criminality be reinstated in the lead. Smart Sherlock ( talk) 05:13, 31 March 2024 (UTC) reply

• I absolutely did not misinterpret your request. However, someone else has now improved the article with far better sources than were previously there. Black Kite (talk) 09:36, 31 March 2024 (UTC) reply
