This leader of the student wing of a regional party only gets a single passing mention in the article's references. Newspapers also reported his arrest, but not in any great detail. Clarityfiend (talk) 23:50, 29 October 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete - His arrest was covered as a news item, and that's all in terms of any significant coverage in reliable sources. -- Whpq (talk) 14:27, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - as lacking in depth coverage, being aware that subsequent events may get them more coverage, which would make them notable. Stuartyeates (talk) 08:40, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete - Per nom. No in depth coverage. Vacation9 (talk) 23:03, 4 November 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete. A news search turns up only a smattering of articles, most of which are not solely about him. I'd support the inclusion of some information about him in the Telangana movement, but a merge doesn't seem appropriate because the article doesn't contain anything about his arrests or involvement in that movement. Delete for lack of significant coverage in reliable sources per WP:GNG, but note that there is likely to be more coverage in the Telugu press; if this can be found and is significant, I'll change my stance. --Batard0 (talk) 06:30, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
