I went through the article. It definitely fails WP:GNG. Some sources have been used here but most of them just have passing reference of the subject.-Admantine123 (talk) 17:59, 23 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This book mentions the subject as a primary source about Hare Krishna Singh. I've added the information there, so I think a redirect to Hare Krishna Singh is reasonable. If someone finds more sourcing, please ping me and I'll reconsider my vote. 𝕱𝖎𝖈𝖆𝖎𝖆 (talk) 10:50, 25 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: here is a book that appears to indicate that Ranjit Ram is the same as the Ranjit Baba who is "worshipped in some communities" in Bihar, and gives a few pages of additional information on him. If that's substantiable, I think it could, in combination with the other sources cited, justify an article. But I am not sure how much credence to give to that source. It seems that there may be some additional sources in Hindi, e.g. in this book published by the reputable Rajkamal Prakashan press, but again I cannot effectively evaluate them. -- Visviva (talk) 01:33, 2 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
