Oppose. No evidence supporting the move, and the rationale is so inadequate that it should probably be speedily closed, but it's a bit late for that now. Please link to policies etc to which you appeal, and provide at least a claim of the facts that make the policy etc relevant, preferably even some evidence. In this case
MOS:HONORIFIC does not ban honorifics (as the rationale would seem to imply), instead it reads in part The inclusion of some honorific prefixes and styles is controversial... and Where an honorific is so commonly attached to a name that the name is rarely found without it, it should be included. The article lead reads in part popularly known as Purna Das Baul Samrat.

Disagree that there's any useful parallel with Lord Jesus Christ, there are many reasons for not adding the Lord which don't apply here. Your opinion that it should be an uncontroversial move is not particularly relevant I'm afraid. If we accepted this form or argument we would be in a real mess, as we often have people form such opinions some on one side of an issue and some on the other. Nor are five links using the name good evidence of anything relevant. Please read
WP:AT and, if you can frame a valid case in terms of this
policy, I'm sure you'll get a hearing. And I hope, not otherwise. No change of vote.

It should be an uncontroversial move, if you know about the subject or the language (i.e. Bengali)! But, I don't move articles directly and could not understand why the article creator used such an honorific in the title!--
