Hi Divya,
I guess you are speaking about the images, about which you have been notified on your talk page: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User_talk:Divyacskn1289
For those images, Roland zh provided the following reason:
Deletion request started to verify claimed 'own work', as imho potentially non-free content, see format and missing EXIF data to verify origin,
I am not sure, what to do with this one. There neither is on obligation to exclusively upload images with certain exif data, nor with a special format. As far as I know, if an image is an own work, you just state "own work" and that is it.
I don't see any grounds for deletion of the image - and to me it seems like the requester in fact wants to change Commons policy, which is not possible within a deletion request.
As an example, I have dealt with https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Deletion_requests/File:Alleppey.jpg in accordance with these observations. Maybe this can be a help with regards to the other images!
