 * Keep Despite the nominator's three word argument that this is a "non notable person", the article asserts notability, saying he was a freedom fighter in the 1857 uprising in India, a revolutionary, and that he spent 14 years in Britain pleading the Indian cause. A Google search confirms that this is all true, and that he was a notable figure in Indian history as attested by many reliable sources. Cullen328 (talk) 18:03, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Keep One just has to look at the gbooks link that comes with the nomination to assess notability. Cullen328 has also sourced the article. &mdash; Spaceman  Spiff  07:23, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep. A quick WP:BEFORE would have indicated notability, as has been determined. The subject for the article is noteworthy and reliably sourcable as same. - The Bushranger One ping only 16:21, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment I've expanded the article a bit, and added some references. Cullen328 (talk) 16:28, 31 January 2011 (UTC)


 * Keep. Notable even if he was an Indian. Hawkeye7 (talk) 20:02, 31 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Keep - the article claims the subject was a diplomat for the independent state of Satara and a key figure in the Indian Rebellion of 1857, both of which are supported by reliable sources. As such the subject seems to be notable under WP:GNG. Anotherclown (talk) 05:04, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
