Wrt WP:NPOL, the subject is not a(n) (inter)national or a state-level legislative body member; neither does he seem to have significant press coverage in the sense that independent in-depth coverage is absent. The only coverage he sustained was that of general news coverage and almost all of them insist that he is a relative of the Mulayam Singh Yadav's family. Were he not, he would not have received such coverage indicating the coverage would be due to the family association and in WP terms, inherited notability. Such case, the article fails WP:NPOL, WP:ANYBIO and WP:NBASIC (unless of course in-depth coverage could be uncovered which I suspect doesn't exist) ({{Notability}} tag was disputed and removed and I presume a draftification would be WP:DRAFTOBJECTed and thus WP:AFDed) — DaxServer (t · m · c) 10:39, 20 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete per nom. Definitely fails NPOL, and coverage is always connected to more notable relatives. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 01:48, 21 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Panchayats are a level of local government in India, not a state or national legislature, so the bar he has to be measured against is WP:NPOL #2 — but the quality and depth of the sourcing here isn't getting him over that bar. Bearcat (talk) 14:01, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
