The result was keep. This nomination was silly and I'll try to set the matter straight. Thanks PWilkinson. Drmies ( talk) 01:51, 8 January 2016 (UTC) reply

• Keep but change name, probably by reverting the page move from Shivraj Singh Chouhan Third ministry (2013–) made just a few hours before the nomination. The nominator should be aware that, while Wikipedia should not have two articles on the same topic, the first thing to do after finding what are apparently two such articles is to compare the articles. Broadly speaking, this can lead to one of three conclusions: first, that the appropriately sourced content of one of the articles is already fully contained and sourced in the other; second, that each article contains appropriately sourced content missing from the other; or thirdly, that the articles are sufficiently distinct in topic that both should be kept provided that they each meet Wikipedia standards. The content of this article clearly falls into the third of these cases, even though the current title does not (as it should) make this obvious - it is a sourced list of subnational government ministers (mostly automatically notable by WP:NPOL), of a type that we habitually allow on Wikipedia.
