This is one case where I absolutely cannot tell whether the person is notable or not. Provided sources don't demonstrate so; web searches get hopelessly muddled with flowery church eulogies, and with similarly named 18th century scholars. I can't even determine whether his position in the St. Thomas Christian community is distinguished enough for our purposes. Someone with Malayalam capacities might have more luck here. As it is, I'm not seeing WP:NSCHOLAR satisfied. -- Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 17:12, 5 March 2019 (UTC) Elmidae ( talk · contribs) 17:12, 5 March 2019 (UTC)

- Delete fails WP:BIO and WP:GNG, as substantive coverage in multiple independent and reliable sources is not established. — Nearly Headless Nick {c} 16:05, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
