A general encyclopedia entry, used here only for its demographic table giving the Sikh population of India at the 2001 and 2011 Census of India, which the article cites directly to Census of India and censusindia.gov.in; an aggregator of a primary government count rather than a primary source itself, the same tier already assigned to the Wikipedia entries this axis reuses elsewhere for the same reason, among them the United Methodist Church and the ELCA.
