Seemingly NN author. Only claim of notability that might pass WP:AUTHOR are the 2 non notable awards that are asserted as winning. Claims of authoring Mahabharata appear to be patently false. Toddst1 (talk) 15:32, 3 March 2016 (UTC)

 * Keep One of the greatest Gujarati writers of the 20th century, author of more than 100 books. Biwom (talk) 20:31, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
 * And this author meets WP:GNG how? Toddst1 (talk) 20:37, 3 March 2016 (UTC)


 * Keep. This book mentions him as one of the "important figures" of the 20th century Gujarati literature. This magazine lists him among the "eminent personalities" of Gujarat.  utcursch &#124; talk 18:28, 6 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep Certainly appears to meet notability guidelines. Can you imagine an American author being nominated in similar circumstances? What searches has the nom undertaken in Gujarati? AusLondonder (talk) 07:25, 7 March 2016 (UTC)
 * Keep as notable author, as stated by sources given in discussion. I think WP: GNG is passed. Atlantic306 (talk) 04:28, 10 March 2016 (UTC)
