 * Delete: the article relies almost entirely on one source, and therefore fails General notability guideline. EncyclopediaEditorXIV (talk) 18:08, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Keep: Coupled with the source in the article, I found some reliable ones online (here (this one is the most reliable), here, and here) which is therefore enough to establish WP:NBIO.  Coco bb8  (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 12:55, 25 June 2024 (UTC)


 * Delete as fails WP:GNG. All three sources mentioned by are just about Gupta's appointment as "the chairperson of the Raja Rammohun Roy Library Foundation" only. The Hindu, though notable media, wrote only "A senior journalist, Mr. Gupta was associated with the first NDA government, having worked in the PMO of Atal Bihari Vajpayee.", as addition to the announcement which is not enough for WP:NBIO.

 * @Twinkle1990, The Hindu wrote at least 2 paragraphs. How is that not WP:SIGCOV?  Coco bb8  (💬 talk • ✏️ contribs) 15:23, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
 * @Cocobb8 please quote what were in those two paragraphs. I don't see any anything beyond mention. If you see, please enligten us. Twinkle1990 (talk) 15:39, 26 June 2024 (UTC)
 * @Twinkle1990 Well I won't quote that much because that would constitute a copyright violation. But, here's the very first sentence of the article. The Union Culture Ministry has appointed journalist Kanchan Gupta the chairperson of the Raja Rammohun Roy Library Foundation till May 2020, weeks after Union Culture and Tourism Minister of State (independent charge) Prahlad Singh Patel was nominated to the post.At this point, I'll leave it to other editors to share their thoughts with this article.
