Sorry, but I can’t see a valid reason for the last revert; the version from 26 June 2025 was promoted to FP status (Commons:Featured picture candidates/File:Mahatma Gandhi leaves Presidency Jail in Calcutta.jpg), so it must not be changed or overwritten (or only for really important legal reasons).
