Delete. Neither being president of a local organization nor running as a candidate in an election the person did not win is grounds for a Wikipedia article — the notability test for politicians is holding a notable office, not just running for one, and the notability test for presidents of organizations is passing
WP:GNG on the sourcing. But this is referenced much more to
primary sources rather than reliable or notability-supporting media coverage — she (and/or her husband) is the author of nearly half the footnotes here, not the subject of them, and then two more after that are the
self-published websites of directly affiliated organizations. And the three remaining sources that are actually real media aren't about her either, but just glancingly mention her name in the process of being about other things. This is not how you make a person notable enough for inclusion — and even if she were notable, her husband writing the article himself still wouldn't be the way to get her in the door per
WP:COI.

Delete per
WP:TNT. This is by far the worst case I've seen of
WP:NOTINHERITED in 17 years, mixed in with

poured onto a soap box. She "is currently the President of ... the founder of ... a member of ... the second daughter of India's eminent artist (
K.M. Gopal who doesn't have an article although his co-op
Cholamandal Artists' Village does, and "still fighting for her family membership") ... learned art from her father until his death ... worked for companies such as ... has continuously pursued art as her passion since childhood ... [took a bunch of art classes] ... reinstated Kalaimaiyam, which was an art collective ... founded Gochi Academy ... to encourage creative arts among young audience.(sic.) ... emphasizes creativity over technique ... stood for ... has supported many social and welfare activities where a community voice is needed."
