 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Maybe someone can read the source provided?
 * Delete, without prejudice against recreation in the future if somebody can find proper reliable sourcing for it. In principle, the claim that he was "a member of the legislative assembly of Bihar" passes WP:NPOL #1, but we have seen articles created which claimed that their subject held an NPOL-passing role when in fact they did not — so it's not the claim of serving in the legislative assembly that passes NPOL, but the sourcing that can be provided to properly verify that the claim is actually true. And I'm especially suspicious of articles about legislators which fail to specify what district the person represented or when. So no prejudice against recreation if somebody can actually locate verification that he actually held the claimed role (they don't have to be English-language ones, but can be in any language as long as they're reliable and properly verify the claim), but he can't keep an unsourced article just because he's claimed to have held an unverified political office.

 * It should be possible for anyone who can read the Devangari script to verify whether the subject was an MLA from the documents linked here. Unfortunately I cannot read them. 86.17.222.157 (talk) 08:17, 29 April 2018 (UTC)

 * And, my results are in negative.Still will conduct a re-search. ~ Winged Blades Godric 09:58, 7 May 2018 (UTC)
 * A source is located but it's not much helpful except that he existed and belonged to INC. ~ Winged Blades Godric 04:25, 7 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete I don't know what else to recommend with this article. It's completely unverifiable. SportingFlyer  talk  04:54, 8 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Surely if, like me and unlike Winged Blades of Godric, you are unable to read Devangari script then you are not in a position to recommend anything? 86.17.222.157 (talk) 17:39, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
 * If someone can find a source in Devangari script that would imply notability, then I would reconsider. But as it stands, searching for him or things like him brings up only this Wikipedia article and mirror sites. SportingFlyer  talk  05:23, 10 May 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete--Per my comments, above. ~ Winged Blades Godric 05:03, 11 May 2018 (UTC)
