A biography of an alternative health/fitness coach; the article was created by one new editor and another has twice removed maintenance tags concerning notability, advertising tone and unreliable sources. Searches, including the customised Indian newspaper search, are returning nothing about this person. That leaves the given references: there are primary sources such as articles the subject has written on a "Red Elephant Foundation" blog and New Age Wellness World, a short promotional piece at "META-Health University" and a Youtube clip showing the subject working at a Mrs India event. None of these strike me as reliable 3rd party sources. The most substantial appears to be the article about the subject on an "Incredible Women of India" blog, which is bylined. At most, these confirm the subject as someone going about her business, whose wares are promoted in the article; I see nothing to demonstrate biographical notability to merit inclusion in an encyclopaedia.

 * Delete Most of the sources currently used in the article appeared to be self-published or poor quality. There is a link to The Hindu website, but it is simply a brief mention in their Metro Plus supplement from 2004 that covered a mother and daughter competition. She fails to pass WP:GNG and notability has not been established. Drchriswilliams (talk) 22:04, 16 August 2016 (UTC)
