I would have have draftified this but there is already a draft. This article was a Frankenstein’s monster of religious fancruft, repeated material and appalling referencing. I removed unsourced material and then went through all the refs. Most were utter nonsense that had nothing to do with the article subject, or just mentioned his name but did not support the content of the article. There are only three sources left. One is not independent and I can’t access the other two. I’m prepared to believe that the subject may indeed be notable, but if they are this very poor article does them no favours.

Delete. Poorly sourced article and does not corroborate with the subject. I do not see any beneficial contribution and significant notability from this poorly sourced article.RangersRus (talk) 03:23, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. Non-notable person. It is a recreation of an article that has been to AFD twice before. Most of the article appears to have been written by Srabanta Deb using various accounts to evade his/her block. Srabanta Deb usually recreates deleted articles using slightly different versions of the same name to make it harder to spot what he/she is doing.-- Toddy1 (talk) 17:08, 17 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
