WP:BLP of a person notable only as president of a university student union. (In India, naturellement.) As always, this is not an "inherently" notable role that guarantees a person a Wikipedia article just because he exists, but the article is not showing or sourcing a credible reason why he could be considered more notable than the norm -- not all of the sources here are about him at all, as some just glancingly mention his name in the process of being primarily about other things or people, and the few that are genuinely about him don't add up to enough coverage to get him over WP:GNG in lieu of having to pass WP:NPOL on a more notable political role.

- Delete - I concur with the nominator's analysis of sourcing with respect to notability and my own searches turn up only more sources about the DSU election incident with the subject being mentioned but with no substantial coverage. -- Whpq ( talk) 14:12, 20 December 2019 (UTC)
