Not really. It is a description of a subset of Indian editors active on
Wikipedia.

Editing characterized by

1. Aggressive nationalism (to the point of claiming that incidents like the
Satichaura Ghat massacre didn't occur at all - where a bunch of sepoys let
the lucknow garrison + their families under General Wheeler get into boats,
and then opened fire, killing several men, women and children ...).  Oh, and
an aggressive campaign to call a page "First War of Indian Independence"
rather than "Indian Rebellion of 1857"  or "Sepoy Mutiny" 

2. A few fun Wikipedia tricks - tagteam editing to get around 3RR,
wikilawyering etc, followed by creating sockpuppet editors.
