This was deleted earlier this year via AfD.

Being Additional Federal Secretary and consultant to Pakistan's PM is not in itself grounds for notability, so the question is whether there are multiple reliable, independent sources that discuss the person in depth. As seen in the long list of sources cited, that does not appear to be the case. Half of the cited references are YouTube videos (primary sources) while the rest is name checking type of coverage.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Very weak keep - his work on Toronto urbanist stuff might hit the GNG bar. I'm not too wedded to a keep here, but I suspect it's a salvageable article. Simonm223 (talk) 12:15, 7 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete - currently not notable enough per WP:SIGCOV. Störm   (talk)  20:17, 10 September 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete Nothing that supports actual notability. Fails Reliable Sources and notability is in doubt. ShunDream (talk) 10:41, 13 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete. The references here are almost all primary sources and YouTube videos, not notability-supporting reliable source coverage about him in media — and the few that actually are real media are not substantively about him, but just glancingly namecheck his existence in coverage of other things except for one article that's covering him not in the context of anything noteworthy, but merely in the context of hosting a dinner party. So basically none of the references here get him over WP:GNG, and nothing stated in the article body is "inherently" notable enough to exempt him from having to get over GNG on the referencing. No prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can show much better references than this. Bearcat (talk) 04:37, 17 September 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete It could be speedy deleted I think. Not sure why it was recreated without gaining further evidence of notability. शिव साहिल/Shiv Sahil (talk) 18:27, 18 September 2018 (UTC)
