This is another great photograph that appears in the Konark article. The image is available under GFDL, and is of sufficiently high resolution. It adds significantly to the article. To me, it looks worth featurable. — Ambuj Saxena ( ☎) 07:39, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
This Agni-II missile image appears on numerous articles including the Agni missile system article. Available under CC-BY-2.5. Very clear and encyclopedic image. Can be selected on the portal, IMO. — Ambuj Saxena ( ☎) 19:28, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
A fascinating image that makes me wonder how was this wasn't discovered any before. Can't find any fault with it. Available under GFDL and appearing in Lakshadweep article. — Ambuj Saxena ( ☎) 19:13, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

Already a featured picture. In my opinion, simply breath-taking. Image is of an Indian peacock, the national bird of India. — Ambuj Saxena ( ☎) 19:05, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

This image, as can be seen, is about Gateway of India. Available under a free license (GFDL), it is of very high quality and depicts the subject very well. I think we can have this as a selected picture on the portal. — Ambuj Saxena ( talk) 17:50, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

I found this image to be very useful for illustrating idlis, having a very high resolution, and at the same time very pleasing to the eye. The subject, of course, is intimately linked to India. — Ambuj Saxena ( talk) 19:53, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
This breath-taking photograph shows the Mysore Palace during night. It is a CC-2.0 image from Flickr. Definitely looks like a selectable picture on the Portal. — Ambuj Saxena ( talk) 08:39, 23 November 2006 (UTC)
This is an image of a Bengal Tiger, used in many articles including the Bengal Tiger one. As work of U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service employee, the image is in Public Domain. — Ambuj Saxena ( talk) 10:28, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
Prayer flag above the monastery (Gompa) of Tanze, in the Kurgiakh valley. The wind is believed to propagate the prayers printed on tissue. Photo by User:Moumine. Already an FP, so speedy promotion candidate. — Ambuj Saxena ( talk) 08:25, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

The image is already featured at the commons. I don't know why it wasn't nominated as FP on enwiki. This is another speedy promotion candidate as it is very much India-related. — Ambuj Saxena ( talk) 09:33, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

I discovered this image during my work on the Gujarat Portal. It appears in many articles about India but is the main image in the Somnath Temple article. Image released into public domain by User:Bharath12345.
A beautiful and illustrative photograph of a Nishi tribal, wearing the traditional head-dress having a hornbill beak. In this case, the head-dress also has monkey hair at the back. Illustrates the accompanying article very well.
Shamelessly nominating my own picture. This is a photograph of the 8 mtr high gilded statue of the Buddha in Tawang Gompa. This depicts the Sakyamuni Buddha, the moment at which he attained enlightenment. The Buddha is seen in a "ground-touching" pose, where he touches his lotus with the tip of his hand and with a serene expression on his face. I've added this to the Buddha article, since it was lacking a picture from a well-known Gompa, and especially one in this state (pose). Do see the picture in it's full size - there's a lot of beautiful detail which is not apparent in the resized version.

This might be vanity, but I found this image extemely suitable as a selected picture on Portal:India. The image is of the central academic complex (known as Main Building) of IIT Kharagpur. It is high resolution, used in many articles, and illustrates the institute well. I would like to know if the community also finds it suitable for getting the "Selected Picture" status.

This is the photograph of International Institute of Information Technology - Bangalore campus. I found this image of excellent quality and worth being a Selected Picture for the Portal.
A high-res picture of a temple at Khajuraho that I took in 1999 with my Nikon camera. It is one of the most famous temples from the period and I am somewhat happy with the way the photo turned out. It is linked on the Kandariya Mahadeva page and a self-nom for Did you know. I forgot to mention that I'd like the nominations to be defered to next week since I myself support the Somnath Temple picture Feature.
