 * Delete. Lacks multiple reliable independent secondary sources actually about the subject to establish notability as required by WP:GNG.  Most of the so-called references are in fact dead links.  The Times of India is a WP:RS but those articles offer only trivial mentions of the subject.  Googling turned up nothing useful.  Msnicki (talk) 16:27, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete: Subject of the article fails WP:GNG. A mention of him in one or two sources does not make him an encyclopedic subject. However, this biography can be published elsewhere but certainly not here. Wikicology (talk) 16:58, 2 December 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep Agreed that she is not especially notable as a civil servant, although she seems to be rising in the bureaucracy. The Times of India mentioned her 3 times in 2014 as a textile minister. But I think she might qualify as an artist. She has had a recent solo exhibition in London and had a book of her work published, which are criteria for artists. And there is the "Artist of the Year" award in 2009, though there is no link for that. I added a link for the London exhibition. – Margin1522 (talk) 18:47, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
