 * Panchayat councils are not an WP:NPOL-passing office. Nothing below the level of the state legislature confers automatic inclusion rights in Wikipedia — even mayors only get in the door if they're really well-sourced, and are not automatically entitled to have articles just because they exist, let alone county or panchayat councillors.

 * Delete. People do not get articles just for being candidates in elections they did not win, and losing by a narrower margin than somebody else lost by is not in and of itself evidence that this losing candidate is more special than that losing candidate. The article is not actually stating or reliably sourcing any significant evidence that he could be considered a "major local political figure" under NPOL #2 despite failing to pass NPOL #1: that criterion is meant primarily to cover mayors, not unsuccessful candidates, and even if you wanted to claim notability for serving on a panchayat council, that's still not a matter of just saying he's a panchayat councillor — it would be a matter of writing and reliably sourcing genuinely substantive content about his impact as a panchayat councillor. So outside the candidacy itself, there's nothing else here that establishes that he has preexisting notability for other reasons, and nothing that would satisfy the ten year test for enduring significance.

 * Delete a non-notable politician. Bearcat has given a very good assessment of why this person is not notable.John Pack Lambert (talk) 14:06, 13 May 2020 (UTC)
