I believe this person fails WP:GNG and WP:POLITICIAN. Even once I cleaned up all the spam, this is a poorly sourced article. Bringing to AfD because I think they may be borderline. He absolutely fails WP:GNG though. HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:13, 6 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep: The 2012 obituary from The Hindu confirms that the subject served as an MLA, which meets WP:NPOL criterion 1. AllyD (talk) 06:47, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Keep: The subject had been elected as MLA of Pedakurapadu constituency from the party Telugu Desam Party in Andhra Pradesh legislative assembly in 1989.Umakant Bhalerao (talk) 18:33, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment:, So one of the reasons I nominated this was because I was unsure of him passing NPOL. However, in saying that, wouldn't his failure to meet WP:GNG superseded this? HickoryOughtShirt?4 (talk) 23:04, 7 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Comment: Hi . Here's my opinion. SNG's are basically more refined guidelines for determining WP:N within a certain area. SNG's make the presumption of notability, which is most often correct, but a presumption assumes something (in this case notability) in the absence of explicit evidence; if someone feels the presumption is not supported by evidence (a lack of WP:RS), the presumption can be called into question for discussion. ""Presumed" means that significant coverage in reliable sources creates an assumption, not a guarantee, that a subject merits its own article. A more in-depth discussion might conclude that the topic actually should not have a stand-alone article". Ultimately I believe it all comes down to whether there is a consensus that there are likely multiple WP:RS that are verifiable and independent of the subject that addresses the subject directly and in detail and that the subject not be excluded by WP:WWIN. It's my opinion, but I hope this helps.  // Timothy ::  talk  07:57, 8 August 2020 (UTC)

 * Weak Keep: There is at least one decent source in the article. Because of his work and election to a state assembly think it is likely there are multiple WP:RS that are verifiable and independent of the subject that addresses the subject directly and in detail.  // Timothy ::  talk  07:57, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
 * Keep: Satisfies NPOL as member of state legislature. --Ab207 (talk) 15:05, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
