The nominator's recommendation for deletion, for reasons undisclosed, appears to be arising out of his bias against police officers. However relevant or irrelevant that may be to the present discussion, his remarks against presence of Uday Sahay in wikipedia smacks of this bias as it reads, "non notable mid level retired police officer,vanity page." It seems that nominator's understanding of Uday Sahay public career freezes at 2001 (When Sahay got out of police job), and he fails to see what all twists and turns Uday Sahay's career trajectory took there after.

The fact remains that today Uday Sahay is a known author (edited 3 books, including one by Oxford University Press)and a communication professional in India. He is the only IPS officer in India who has led the Communications verticals of a state (Delhi) government and of the biggest sporting event ever held in India - the Organising Committee of Commonwealth Games 2010 Delhi. He is today communication adviser to several distinguished academic and public organizations in India,including Unique Identification Authority of India. If you google search Uday Sahay's name and examine his digital media presence, you will be able to sense whether opinion given to delete Uday Sahay's entry in wikipedia is an informed one — Preceding unsigned comment added by 120.56.173.87 (talk) 08:59, 2 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
