Keep as per this, this, this, this, this, this, and other Google book searches. Twinkle1990 (talk) 14:41, 30 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep and move to Rana Bhim Singh, as that's his WP:COMMONNAME. He was an important ruler of Gohad State who also captured the famous Gwalior Fort in 1754. He is covered in plenty of scholarly sources: just search terms like Rana Bhim Singh, Rana of Gohad, etc. Here are some scholarly sources which can be used to improve and expand the article:

pp. 110–111, 139 of this book describe Bhim Singh's relation with the Bharatpur State rulers and their joint military expeditions
pp. 51–52, 148 of this book gives a detailed account of capturing of Gwalior fort by Rana and also of its subsequent siege by the Marathas
p. 87–88 this book describes the capture of Gwalior fort by Rana and the subsequent siege of Marathas;
pp. 44–45 of this book describes his capture of the fort and also his death in a battle
pp. 93–94 of this book discusses the mutual help provided by Bhim Singh and Bharatpur rulers and the attack of Marathas on the Rana.

So the article needs improvement, not deletion. - NitinMlk (talk) 20:34, 5 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]
