Even after being involved in many events and work the subject does not have significant coverage in reliable sources. Most of references in the article are either from social networking sites or self-published sources. The subject fails WP:GNG and WP:BIO — CutestPenguin ^Hangout 14:13, 17 August 2015 (UTC) reply

• Delete No significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that I can find. I first thought that a "keep" argument could be made based on inherent notability for the president of a political party, but it seems like there is very little coverage (if any) for the party too, and so neither of them likely meet GNG.

• Delete The nominator is exactly right about the quality of sources used in the article and the ones seemingly available, and Vanamonde93 is right about the notability due to the "political party". The only mention in an RS I could find was this one, which is so trivial that we can't even be sure that it's the same person. Note that there are several other swamis with similar names, eg Swami Premananda and another Swami Premanand Ji Maharaj who was active years before the subject was born.
