Other than holding a parochial office in the Muborak regional Soviet Communist Party branch, nothing more even in Russian-language sources. Falls short of WP:BIO.

 * Comment: As a deputy of the Supreme Soviet of the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic, he would pass WP:NPOL, but I could not find any sources that verify this service despite a very thorough search. In fact, the only source I found was this, which does have a brief snippet of him at page 107 entry 7169, but does not mention service in the legislature. Curbon7 (talk) 12:20, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
 * I had the same sourcing difficulty. Significant coverage in multiple secondary sources per WP:BASIC seems to be absent, so pulling out a meaningful biography beyond stub is doubtful here. Brandmeistertalk  14:27, 24 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Keep The fact that he was a deputy is verified by THREE obituaries about him: the one in Lenin Bayragi cited in the article, the obituary for him in Pravda Vostoka (the largest Russian language newspaper of Uzbekistan), the obituary for him in Sovet Uzbekistoni (the largest Uzbek language newspaper of Uzbekistan at the time), and having your obituary in a national newspaper is a big deal. Despite the claims of some people about being “thorough” in research looking for information that is clearly not the case because they could have easily found the obituaries I linked if only they just bothered to look in the right place, or even just bothered to read the obituary in Lenin Bayragi that the article already uses which says that he was a deputy. Sadly this problem afflicts lots of Uzbek articles…it wasn’t long ago that our most highly decorated scientist Toshmuhammad Sarimsoqov (The head of the Uzbek Academy of Sciences and recipient of the highest Soviet civil honor Hero of Socialist Labor) was shrugged off as non-notable by another non-Uzbek. So please stop assuming that there is no press on someone just because you can’t find it because there is a chronic problem with English Wikipedia editors not being able to find Uzbek media materials-- Salazarov (chat) 11:45, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Please WP:AGF, and the Lenin Bayragi source is a link to a hidden VK page. This source is sufficient in demonstrating an WP:NPOL pass, so Keep. Curbon7 (talk) 19:31, 28 May 2023 (UTC)
