Politicians are not given an automatic free pass over WP:BIO just because they exist — their ability to qualify for Wikipedia articles is determined by criteria at WP:POLITICIAN. This one fails to meet WP:POLITICIAN. Subject lacks non-trivial coverage from independent reliable sources and does not appear to meet basic GNG as well. Saqib (talk) 07:59, 13 August 2018 (UTC)

 * Keep. According to ], she holds a cabinet-level position. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 11:28, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Consider it a question: So the subject is Chairperson at Rajasthan State Finance Commission. Apparently. Rajasthan State Finance Commission is a government body under the State Government of Rajasthan. I assume there would be plenty of government departments under the State Government of Rajasthan so does that means the chairs of those government departments pass WP:N test? I assume Chair of Rajasthan State Finance Commission is an important position, thats why she was given a seat in the state cabinet but importance does not equate with notability and therefore I'm not convinced that she easily meets WP:POLITICIAN. --Saqib (talk) 17:19, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
 * WP:POLOUTCOMES says: "In general... Elected and appointed political figures at the national cabinet level are generally regarded as notable, as are usually those at the major sub-national level (US state, Canadian province, Japanese prefecture, etc.)" Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:26, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
 * as has already pointed out WP:NPOL criterion for her inclusion, I wouldn't delve into that, however as this is my second-time finding you nominate an article for deletion without going through WP:BEFORE; I advise you to do so from now on; earlier this year you nominated a bunch of Pakistani permanent civil servant articles (Federal Secretary-level officers, if I recall correctly) for deletion created by a user in a display of behaviour which borderlined on hounding frankly and now this, I strongly advise you to follow WP:BEFORE, I say this because I have done the same mistake in a bunch of AfDs, also, please don't take this as an attack on you as a frankly, great content-creating editor.

 * Sidenote — Unlike in the US, in India cabinet-level positions are generally advisory positions given to not-so-important/retired party-people and don't have much executive powers, consider them to be something in vein of a honorary chairperson or member in an organisation. She doesn't attend state-cabinet meetings and isn't a part of the state's council of ministers, that is a privilege reserved for the cabinet ministers appointed by the state governor on the advise of the state's chief minister in accordance with the nation's constitution.

 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Due to split views over whether WP:NPOL is satisfied. NOTE TO CLOSER: please be aware of the mid-AfD article move.
 * Comment. If the article survives AfD, I would suggest moving it to Jyoti Kiran. See the discussion at the article's talk page. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:26, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
 * The article has already been moved, which isn't ideal during an AFD. Eastmain (talk • contribs) 22:28, 13 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep — Chairperson of a SFC is an irrelevant position in the grand scheme of things, but, her position does merit her a Wikipedia entry under criterion no. 1 of WP:NPOL. Regards, SshibumXZ (Talk) (Contributions). 02:33, 14 August 2018 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Nosebagbear (talk) 10:52, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep due to WP:NPOL as described above. Ross-c (talk) 11:29, 20 August 2018 (UTC)
