The article consists of three paragraphs of puffery, wading through which I can only find out that he works at a university, that he teaches Sanskrit and that he's received an award for contributing to the cultural life of his local neighbourhood. That's very far from meeting either the notability criteria for academics or the general notability criteria. I haven't looked for further sources though. – Uanfala (talk) 18:31, 19 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]
