This was nominated for deletion last month however this was kept, not sure why.. maybe because the nom was sock? anyways, this one is clearly promotional BLP about a non-notable advocate. as mentioned in the previous nom, there is no reference that is directly about him. Fails WP:GNG. Saqib (talk) 15:41, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep He has held state/province–wide office, that is chairman executive of punjab br council, hence clearly passes notability criteria for politicians see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_(people). Moreover, He is member of legislative body bar council since 2010, it does secondary legislation. Had position held by him was not notable President Zardari and then CM Shehbaz Sharif would not congratulate on his being elected as chairman executive. see https://www.nawaiwaqt.com.pk/E-Paper/Lahore/2010-01-31/page-1/detail-11. This is also a source directly about him. His name is in the headnote. International media coverage further strengthens notability. see https://www.tribuneindia.com/2010/20100808/cth1.htm. if any editior finds anything promotional in this article, the said content may kindly be pointed out and removed. 202.83.170.202 (talk) 08:31, 19 March 2024 (UTC)
 * President of the Bar Council is not a political position. The article is largely PROMO in its entirety. I'd remove most of it, and then what's left is a simple line or two. I don't see notability here. Oaktree b (talk) 21:36, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

 *  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.


 * Delete: "Licensed lawyer" per one website, about sums it up. NO coverage to indicate anything different for notability than the other thousands of lawyers in the world. Largely confirmation of where he's worked, being a simple bio. Oaktree b (talk) 21:35, 24 March 2024 (UTC)

 * Keep Article itself should be kept because the person held an elected position as former head of state/province–wide office statutory body The Punjab Bar Council, hence clearly passes.WP:NPOL. However, some information needs to be removed particularly last section of this Article. It passes WP:GNG especially because sources do not have to be available online or written in English.

 * Delete: Bar council is not sufficient for WP:NPOL. Fails WP:NBIO, sourcing seems like just passing mentions. ARandomName123 (talk)Ping me! 20:38, 31 March 2024 (UTC)


 * Comment Dear if you would like to see in detail, the Punjab Bar Council is different, it not only does secondary legislation at state/province level but also under the constituion of Pakistan sends its reprensetative for appointment of superior judiciary. Moreover, Sources are not passing mentions, some of the Urdu language sources mention the name of this person in its headline. The fact that he held elected position makes him politiican at state/province level. DavidSchop (talk) 03:16, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
