Doesn't appear notable. The only relevant Google hit for most of his awards is this page, and searching for his name yields only user-generated content. Jackmcbarn (talk) 16:10, 8 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep A Bengali-language writer who is notable in Bengal. It would be onerous to require foreign sources (eg. United States, Japanese or Russian). Rather, multiple reliable Bengali-language sources cover this Bengal topic.

 * I also found sources by Mozid Mahmud published in reliable sources (newspapers, journals), but did not include them here due to PRIMARY, but they add to the evidence he is someone known and published in Bengal. -- Green Cardamom (talk) 20:06, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep - though my knowledge of Bengali is near-zero, I'm happy to accept those sources say what GC says they say. I would imagine if the nom knew about those non-English sources he might not have nominated this. Stalwart 111  12:32, 16 November 2013 (UTC)
