  www.bharat-rakshak.com claims copyright on a lot of images, but these claims can be dubious. See, for example, Image:Tejgaon.jpg, which apparently came from the Times of India in 1971; it contains a copyright watermark in the corner that claims the copyright holder is www.bharat-rakshak.com, which is unlikely. The uploader of Image:EACshield.jpg claims the source is http://iaf.nic.in/, and to me that sounds like a more plausible copyright holder than www.bharat-rakshak.com. —Bkell (talk) 23:32, 10 August 2006 (UTC)

  I can't find this shield in the iaf.nic.in website, since you need a password to log in, but iafguru's source is certainly verifiable and seems to be the original source certainly. But I think the image qualifies as fair use, being the badge of an organisation. I have changed the tag and added a fair use rationale.

  PS: Removed tag

  The IAF shield image does not copyright it to bharat-rakshak.com but to some individual by name Arun Sharma - a closer examination of the watermark will show that. This could well be a photograph taken by the individual and does not seem to be a copyright of Bharat-Rakshak.com either. i am adding the tag back IAF Guru 00:55, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
