No strong notability for this student group. Article is all about student activism in general, this group's historical relationship to other groups and people, administrative/membership-policy minutiae, and peacockery. Notability is not inherited. With regard to this group itself, a few sentences in Indian National Congress (parent organization) seems sufficient. DMacks (talk) 16:58, 11 June 2018 (UTC)

- Keep NSUI is a well known student union in India. It is regularly covered by the national media. (1 2 3) Ankit2 (talk) 09:23, 12 June 2018 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep Being a resident of India, I can tell you that this along with Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishad and Students' Federation of India are the three major Category:Student organisations in India. Based on the coverage in Media and books [1][2][3], easily passes WP:GNG. The article may need clean up and WP:NPOV but not deletion. --DBigXray 19:51, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
- Speedy Keep Per above two.Akhiljaxxn (talk) 23:59, 15 June 2018 (UTC)
- Speedy keep NSUI is the student wing of the oldest and currently the second largest (according to number of seats in parliament) national political party of India, i.e. the Indian National Congress. The subject easily passes WP:GNG. Pratyush (talk) 08:06, 16 June 2018 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
Relisting comment: It would be nice to have more policy-based arguments, supported by significant sources. Of the sources listed by Ankit2, only the first one appears to be more than a paragraph, but I don't know how reliable or significant that source is.

- User:Randykitty regarding the first source, yes NDTV is a major news channel in India and a reliable source. I have updated my comment above with sources, thanks--DBigXray 16:50, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
- Keep - As per the Indian contributors who state that this organisation meets WP:GNG. It is difficult for editors based in the US or UK to make decisions on notability pertaining to far away countries where reliable sources may be in languages other than English.
