This is a list of Wikipedia India-related
Featured Pictures, the best pictures of Wikipedia, which are not already in the
India page. I'm sure there are more, which I'll be adding as and when I find them. Since featured pictures are images contributed by good photographers, indeed professional photographers, their subjects will depend on the photographers interests and the photographic opportunities available to them. In other words they cannot be expected to be balanced with respect to region, gender, ethnicity, etc. But they are superb pictures. The
India FA has ten, which are not shown here.
