All sources are routine coverages. She was never elected as an MLA or MP. The article fails WP:GNG and WP:NPOL. S. M. Nazmus Shakib (talk) 16:22, 28 January 2020 (UTC)

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Delete. Nothing stated in the article is a strong notability claim in and of itself — people get over our notability standards for politicians by holding a notable political office, not just by being active within a political party's internal org chart. But the article is not referenced to any strong evidence of reliable source coverage about her — it's referenced to sources about other people which mention her, which is not the same thing as notability-supporting coverage.

 * Delete Fails WP:GNG Tayi Arajakate (talk) 23:15, 2 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Speedy Keep She got covered by Times of India, India Today and Zee News which are leading news services in India. She qualifies for General notablility guideline as per WP:POLITICIAN (Major local political figures who have received significant press coverage.) GargAvinash (talk) 05:51, 4 February 2020 (UTC)

 * Delete Not holding any position, just being an active member is not good enough to be notable. The9Man  talk 11:08, 5 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Delete fails WP:NPOL as she never won any election. The politicians are expected to get this sort of coverage, accordingly our bar for politicians is higher than GNG. Bearcat has explained this well and there is not much left to add.  D Big X ray ᗙ  06:40, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete Fails WP:NPOL and doesn't meet the higher standard of WP:GNG required for politicians. Best, GPL93 (talk) 15:22, 10 February 2020 (UTC)
