AfDs for this article: 
 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

So this BLP was deleted earlier this year via AfD but now has been re-created by a diff user.

I agree with what said in the previous AfD: The subject has no significant or in-depth coverage in independent reliable sources so fails GNG.. and that he's getting trivial press coverage due to the companies owned by his father Lalit Modi so WP:NOTINHERITED. I would say salt if deleted. Saqib (talk) 12:41, 3 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Delete and salt. We had an AfD in January. Hard to imagine that he is suddenly notable. Edwardx (talk) 13:02, 3 April 2018 (UTC)

& Saqib There are people who are searching for the identity of this person on internet may be because of his father lalit modi or because of the controversies around in Rajasthan Cricket Board Association and there are numerous reputed newspapers who are citing the incidents. Wikipedia is here to cater to the knowledge base. I think this article may be of lesser significance but it can exist in the wikibase.

 * Delete subject lacks significant coverage. Also, as Edwardx pointed out above, notability not inherited. — usernamekiran (talk)  08:00, 4 April 2018 (UTC)

 * We can all do a search - if these articles really do meet WP:SIGCOV, why not add something to the article please. Edwardx (talk) 10:32, 16 January 2018 (UTC)
 * There are already numerous citations in that article but they aren't properly formatted so it's difficult to see what they are. I did a Google News search (linked above) and fpund plenty of other sources covering this subject and the aspects of his life I noted above. This subatantial coverage establishes notability. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Indianwikian (talk • contribs) 12:10, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
 * copying comments verbatim from the previous discussion is meaningless for the purpose of this discussion (in addition to being dishonest - these are not your words but those of another editor!) --bonadea contributions talk 12:40, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Oh my.. Thanks for fixing that. I thought that's  and was wondering why would he say that. I've filed a SPI on these newbies. --Saqib (talk) 12:42, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
 * yup, I already commented there :) — usernamekiran (talk)  14:29, 4 April 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete and salt as well. No new notability shown, WP:NOTINHERITED still applies. If he should become notable, the title can be unprotected. --bonadea contributions talk 12:43, 4 April 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete- WP:NOTINHERITED. Sources have provided a good coverage, but ultimately they introduce him as son of Lalit Modi. D4iNa4 (talk) 18:30, 5 April 2018 (UTC)
