I am nominating this article for deletion beause the article fails WP:GNG and WP:PERSON or doesn't meet notability criteria for biographies. This biographic article is unreferenced or doesn't have any reliable sources for verification. This article's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Besides, this article is not written in an encyclopaedic style- that is the article doesn't have infobox, references, external links, categories, necessary templates and talk page etc, which is present in every Wiki article of this type.

 * Comment -, I really do not understand your motive here. You moved this one from draftspace to mainspace and nominated it for a deletion discussion. Even after taking this unusual step, you haven't considered WP:BLPPROD. Hitro talk 07:28, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Comment - I actually did it because I created this deletion discussion page earlier than your move. A.A Prinon 07:35, 7 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete. Google searches showing very little coverage of this individual. Only one hit in Google News, and it was a passing mention. If somebody wants to transliterate her name to whatever Indian language that is (Tamil?) and ping me, I'd be happy to search in that language. – Novem Linguae (talk) 07:43, 15 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete - It should have been deleted per WP:BLPPROD. Google search shows very little coverage which fails WP:GNG. Sun8908 &#8239;Talk 13:09, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Draftify per Hyperion35. Sun8908 &#8239;Talk 01:05, 23 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Draftify Prinon, please read WP:ATD and then re-read it again. Moving an article to draftspace is a legitimate alternative to deletion.  Another editor chose to do this.  Why did you move it back to mainspace?  Once it was moved to draftspace you should have left it at that, regardless of whether or not you had already started an AfD.  Since it is a BLP article, that makes the move more egregious.  I do not understand the reasoning here. Hyperion35 (talk) 22:48, 21 April 2021 (UTC)
 * The nominator created this AFD page at 23:57, but before they were able to place the AFD notice on the article, somebody draftified it at 0:00. I see no major fault with the nominator, although I do suggest WP:TWINKLE for AFD's in the future, which handles AFD's almost instantly. – Novem Linguae (talk) 06:16, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
 * , Yeah right. And actually, at that time, I didn't install twinkle. But recently I installed it and now use it to nominate articles for AFD. &mdash;  A.A Prinon  Conversation 08:01, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
