The result was   delete. WP:SNOW. This is slightly fast for a traditional SNOWBALL/IAR close, but given the number of established editors who have commented, as well as disruption by the article creator of a previous deletion prcess in the Joshi article, I believe we've given these articles enough time. j⚛e deckertalk 18:47, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

Hoax? Utterly unverifiable, the claims in the article and the reality as seen on the Internet don't match at all. The article claims that "Mohan is one of the most famous modern Hindi poets. He is considered one of the major poets of the Hindi literature.", plus his "awards" list shows him being nominated (but never winning) multiple times for important-sounding but unverifiable things like "outstanding man of the 20th century". His publisher has no Web presence, neither have his books. Normally, for prominent HIndi poets, it's no problem to find some sources on Google and the like. Here: nothing at all. All very suspicious, making me believe that the claims in the article are false (or very, very highly exaggerated) and that we shouldn't have articles on him or his works.

 * Delete - Ran into these earlier and could't find evidence for their nobility and also noted the considerable hype in them. Dougweller (talk) 06:48, 29 March 2014 (UTC)

 * Speedy delete Kewal Aapke Liye as unambiguous advertising. Q VVERTYVS (hm?) 10:47, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
 * Delete - No evidence of notability, can't find any reliable sources and I see all the articles are promotional. I think the creators are not constructive, they are using Wikipedia for advertisement.  J i m Carter  ( talk ) 14:04, 29 March 2014 (UTC)
