This article was restored as a contested PROD. Please see Talk:Ramesh Chandra Sinha for details. The Police Medal for Meritorious Service may seem to confer some sort of notability, but it also appears to be very widely awarded. I have edited the article to cite the medal correctly, but I am not satisfied that this gentleman meets the notability criteria to have an article here, and am thus seeking a consensus view while arguing myself for deletion.

 * As it stands, delete because the medal is not enough in itself to demonstrate notability. It is not like we have articles for all other recipients of this medal. However, if somebody can add proof that he is "noted" and had a significant and recognised role in police modernisation then that will save it. Note: I tried to Google the subject but it seems that there are some other people with the exact same name, including a plastic surgeon from Bihar who was involved in a well documented court case. This makes it much harder to search for the subject. --DanielRigal (talk) 09:47, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

 * delete Notability. If there would have been a list of people that have been rewarded this medal, just enter him. Since there isn't (and this is also an indication of non-notability) - delete. Debresser (talk) 21:03, 16 February 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete - the very long list of 2003 recipients would indicate this is a minor award. By itself, this is not sufficient to establish notability -- Whpq (talk) 16:55, 18 February 2009 (UTC)
