 * – ( View AfD View log | edits since nomination)

Contested draftification. Was returned to mainspace without improvement. Not enough in-depth coverage to show they pass WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 14:09, 27 May 2023 (UTC) I think the coverage is more than enough and would like to kindly ask to please withdraw this nomination. Thank you.

 * Delete I looked for sources to support this when it was first created and found nothing. If anyone else can find anything to support this I’m prepared to reconsider. Mccapra (talk) 20:02, 27 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Coverage is offline (most of it) and is in Sindhi language. We need help of someone who understands Sindhi. That being said, there are two in-depth articles just about him cited already and one of them is an in-depth entry in Encyclopedia Sindhiana. You should reconsider your vote.

 * Keep but rename to Hashoo Kewalramani. Some additional coverage is given below:
 * The Wire India has described him as "the founder of the modern nationalist ideology of Sindh"
 * Per this, there is a school named after him called "Hashoo Kewalramani School of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences"?
 * This article says "Ayaz was deeply impressed by leftist intellectual Hashoo Kewalramani".
 * This magazine article notes "Under the able leadership of Hashoo Kewalramani, 'Sindhi Samaj' Delhi also worked hard in this respect. Various Sindhi sammelans were held after 1951."
 * What about this complete book on this dissident by Madad Ali Sindhi.
 * I found one more in-depth article in a Sindhi newspaper and there are more if one searches well. BookishReader (talk) 17:26, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
 * The book is certainly significant and the new newspaper source is also good. The other refs you posted above are passing mentions and don’t help demonstrate notability. Mccapra (talk) 17:35, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Rest assured, I only create an article if it is really notable. Even though I'm not Sindhi, I managed to locate another in-depth book for you that covers his biography:
 * , pp. 53-54 and onwards on archive.org. BookishReader (talk) 18:49, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
 * This magazine article notes: "The pioneering role was played by Hashu Kewalramani, a journalist trained at the United Kingdom (UK). Hashu remained in the UK for seven years and was a close associate in India League of Krishna Menon, a Leftist, who later became a right-hand man of Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru. Hashu returned to Karachi in 1936-37. He organised the students and brought them under the banner of the All India Students Federation with himself as the President and Kishin Motwani and Abhichandani as its General Secretaries. Very soon the organi-sation became a powerful movement and spread to all the towns of Sindh. At Karachi an office was set up to solve the problems of the students and to discuss the political issues. Pritam Tahiliani, Santosh Kumar Dharmani, Rocho Pardasani, Sarla Ahuja, Moti Motwani, Radhakrishnan Wadhwani, Sukhram Virwani, Rijhu Abichandani, Rochi Pardasani, and Hashu’s own younger brother were active members of the AISF." and "they arrested a large number of students including Hashu Kewalramani, President of the AISF, Pritam Tahilramani and Santosh Kumar Dharmani. Hashu Kewalramani was prosecuted and sentenced to 18 months rigorous imprisonment." BookishReader (talk) 18:55, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * I’ve struck my delete vote as there’s apparently enough in Sindhi to take that off the table, but since I can’t read Sindhi I can’t really vote to keep. Mccapra (talk) 22:34, 5 June 2023 (UTC)
