The result was redirect to Sultanpur (Lok Sabha constituency). There is consensus that the article is not notable as a standalone, and a redirect is always a referred option.--Ymblanter (talk) 08:42, 5 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Resume-like article about a local political candidate. No third-party coverage adduced; nor can I find any. As such, the subject fails the general notability guideline. -- Rrburke (talk) 15:02, 27 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. This article is a promotional piece for a local politician with no third party coverage or notable sources. Total fluff. --21:09, 27 March 2014 (UTC)

Redirect to Sultanpur (Lok Sabha constituency), in line with common practice at this type of AfD. There is some slight unfairness to this, given that no fewer than three of his opponents seem to be genuinely Wikipedia-notable for their previous political careers, but this is not the place to be making major changes to Wikipedia policy, and the only real alternative policies (including everybody who has ever declared their candidacy for a national legislature, or deleting articles on all politicians coming up for re-election) would have major countervailing disadvantages.
