Delete. As written, a mess to be nuked, and yes, fails WP:BIO notability req. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 00:09, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Delete for failing WP:V. I disagree with the nominator and Piotrus that this person fails Wikipedia's notability requirements, because I think that claims made in the article, if they were backed by references to reliable sources, would meet notability requirements. I have personal interest in Indian politics and want to support Indian activists, but Wikipedia guidelines do say that all information added to articles has to be referenced to existing published sources. If such sources could be cited, even if they were in Hindi or the subject's working language, then that contribute to a persuasive argument to keep this article. If there are no sources then the article should be deleted. Blue Rasberry (talk) 01:53, 12 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
