Subject is a recently elected local council election winner. All reliable sources about the subject have one-line mentions (either in the list of winners or literally one line about his campaigning). I could not retrieve any in-depth significant reliable sources about the subject. Fails WP:GNG; fails WP:POLITICIAN.  Lourdes  12:02, 9 October 2017 (UTC)

 * Delete. While Gurgaon appears to be a large and prominent enough city that a properly written and properly sourced article about a city councillor would probably be kept, city councillors don't get an automatic presumption of notability just because their existence has been namechecked in routine coverage of the overall election. If even one source here were an actual "meet your new councillor" profile of Sharma as an individual, I'd vote keep — but there hasn't been any evidence shown that such coverage exists yet. No prejudice against recreation if somebody can do better than this — but as currently written and sourced, it's a candidate for the WP:TNT treatment. Bearcat (talk) 17:27, 10 October 2017 (UTC)
