Withdrawn Fails WP:BIO. 舎利弗 (talk) 08:28, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Keep, "Krishna Savjani acted as Chairman of the Malawi Stock Exchange from 2000 to 2010", "Savjani has acted as spokesman for the Asian community in Malawi from 1971.", "He was awarded Order of the British Empire by Queen Elizabeth II in 2003.", are clear indications of notability. There might be issues with clean-up and better referencing in the article, but notability is not an issue here. --Soman (talk) 08:54, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
 * How about sources though? I can't find any that covers him significantly. Of the few sources I could find, it's only passing mentions. I'm not aware, but does an OBE, per current policy, makes a person instantly notable? I see he fulfills WP:ANYBIO item 1, but he does not meet both basic BIO criteria. 舎利弗 (talk) 09:00, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
 * http://books.google.com/books?id=ac4RAQAAIAAJ gives a fairly detailed account, which clarifies notability. http://www.nyasatimes.com/2012/06/23/malawi-to-respect-rule-of-law-rights-jb/ confirms his consular position. Mail and Guardian nmaes him as a prominent Asian lawyer, http://mg.co.za/article/2002-01-01-indians-in-malawi-to-seek-equal-rights . --Soman (talk) 13:03, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
 * Thank you for your hard work. I apologize for my failure to research more thoroughly. I withdraw this nomination. 舎利弗 (talk) 13:08, 24 May 2014 (UTC)
