Use in article (WP:NFCC#7)	2008 Mumbai attacks
Purpose of use in article (WP:NFCC#8)	To support encyclopedic discussion of this work in this article. The illustration is specifically needed to support the following point(s): To illustrate the two day counter-terrorism operation conducted by NSG, which is a major subject of discussion of the article
Not replaceable with free media because (WP:NFCC#1)	The image is of an historic event of great significance that would never occur again, and therefore cannot be replaced with free media. Also, no such images exist of the assaults on Taj or Oberoi hotels.
Minimal use (WP:NFCC#3)	It will be used once in the 'NSG Raid' section of thee 2008 Mumbai attacks page.
Respect for commercial opportunities (WP:NFCC#2)	Screen grab from a video. Is therefore unlikely to affect any market since higher quality, better angles are available in video format, such as [1]
Other information	The image's inclusion in the article is important because: - It illustrates the content discussed in the article. - Only news cameras captured this moment, so a free alternative could not be found or created. The image is used for an understanding of the NSG assault that text alone could not provide. - The image is being used solely for informational purposes only. - The image is a low resolution screen grab from a video and therefore does not affect any market since higher quality, better angles are available in video format. - The image is of historic importance, with great public praise being bestowed on the Commandos for their action. - Havaldar Gajender Singh is one of the men who fast-roped down the helicopter and could very likely be in this image. Since he died in the assault, that would make this irreplaceable. - The only instance in thee entire operation when the NSG commandos were in such plain view of the public during the counter-terrorist operation. The other raids were inside the hotels. - The image is of an historic event of great significance that would never occur again, and therefore cannot be replaced with free media.
