• Keep. Judging from the 76,000+ WP:INDAFD hits, subject is a well-known figure in Indian politics and meets WP:BASIC; I have added one citation, and I think this is merely a question about starting to dig into the sources and build the article. Sam Sailor ^Talk! 13:31, 16 May 2016 (UTC) reply

• Keep per meeting WP:POLITICIAN and WP:BASIC. It's a stub, but it can grow over time and through editorial efforts through the many available sources. Deletion does not benefit the project nor its readers. Schmidt, ^{Michael Q.} 14:18, 16 May 2016 (UTC) reply
• Keep Obvious improvements needed, but significant coverage in reliable sources demonstrated through WP:INDAFD. AusLondonder ( talk) 00:44, 17 May 2016 (UTC) reply
