Indian activist fails WP:GNG with no substantial coverage in reliable sources. He contested as a candidate of Uttarakhand Kranti Dal from the 'Birokhal Vidhan Sabha' constituency but didn't succeed. Fails WP:NPOL also.-- Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 10:36, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy Delete under WP:A7 because he seems a normal citizen who has only contested an election. LordVoldemort728 (talk) 10:49, 9 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, I can only find passing mentions of him online in reliable sources, such as his name included in lists of political activists in Uttarakhand in what appear to be research papers in Google Books. Fails WP:NPOL. About half of the links at the bottom of the article similarly mention him as having run for office and come a distant second or third, the rest don't mention him and appear to be background info for his political work. According to Google Translate, This reference merely says "On the other hand, the local rural state agitator Nand Kishore Nautiyal and all the villagers say that the accident that has happened is very sad..."
