My extensive PROD removed with the sole basia of the trivial award, and there has in fact been consensus here at AfD that one award is not a convincing claim for an article here, and quite contrary, articles have been deleted even if listed, and the article itself sinlly says "fourth highest civilian award". My PROD concerns still apply. SwisterTwister talk 23:41, 4 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep. The Padma Shri has been awarded to fewer than 3000 people in over 60 years in a country with a current population of over a billion. The fact that there are three even more exclusive awards doesn't subtract from the fact that it is a highly significant honour giving a pass of WP:ANYBIO. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 07:58, 5 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep -- I'm going with Anup on this; these achievements appear to be notable, including Padma Shri. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:29, 11 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
