 * Keep The promoter seems unknown about the Director of NSG (India, and an IPS with Director level. Action is appealed against the promoter. --Arunudoy (talk) 10:35, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
 * Being an IPS doen't mean subject passes Wikipedia's General Notability Guidelines. DFXYME (talk) 10:38, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
 * You should get some knowledge about ADG, DG of IB, NSG etc. --Arunudoy (talk) 10:41, 6 January 2022 (UTC)

 * The article isn't great, but the subject appears to have been the chief of police for Assam, a region with a population of about 30 million, and as such he has appeared frequently in news articles commenting on major policing events/crimes/problems. We don't have a great policy for police officers, but there's a useful precedent at Talk:David_Allan_(police_officer). BIO suggests that someone with state-wide political office (WP:NPOL) is probably notable, and this is the closest we have to a chief of police. Given his frequent appearances in news (there's no point in me citing them all individually; a click on the Google news link associated with this AfD will do it) and his high-level position, I think he's a keep.

 * Dear Elemimele, Please note that the person in the article was the Chief of India's Highest Commando branch National Security Guard. Moreover, before I expand the article, the user nominated the article for deletion. A Wiki article can not be completed within minutes. Give me time, but keep it. --Arunudoy (talk) 08:31, 7 January 2022 (UTC)


 * Keep I wouldn't blame the nom as he's named differently in sources and there's a similarly named General, but based on this, this, this, the Indian Express one in the page now, couple of long interviews/speeches covered at length and quotes in WSJ, Reuters etc I think WP:BASIC can be said to be passed. --Hemantha (talk) 18:12, 6 January 2022 (UTC)
