Talk:Meera Shankar

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The information seems to be quite unreflected. The first sentence states: that Shankar is "... India's first female ambassador to the United States of America". If you read further, you are informed: "After Vijayalaxmi Pandit, who served as envoy between 1949 and 1951, she will be India’s second lady ambassador to the United States of America." So what is correct?

Also regarding career, it is at first said: "She served in the Ministry of Commerce from 1991 to 1995". Then you read "Meera Shankar is an Indian Foreign Service officer of the 1973 batch who was posted in Washington from 1991 to 1995". So now what is correct and if indeed both the statements are true then it should be stated clearly that she was sent by the Ministry of Commerce to Washington in the capacity as so and so.


Is this worth mentioning?
