Article lacks secondary sources to verify the notability of both the person and the organization. Nick—Contact/Contribs 06:04, 18 April 2009 (UTC) this artical to the best of my knowledge is original. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Worldpunjabi (talk • contribs) 06:56, 18 April 2009 (UTC)

 * Delete. Fails WP:RS and reeks of WP:VSCA. Eddie.willers (talk) 15:58, 18 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete: I came across this while trying to find sources for Shri Vikramjit Singh Sahney (also created by the same editor). It appears that the articles are near-duplicates of each other, so I've changed Shri Vikramjit Singh Sahney to be a redirect to Vikramjit sahney. However, I wasn't able to find any sources that show his notability, so I'm saying delete. Closing admin: if the result is delete, please get both, ok?

 * Keep but move to Vikramjit Singh Sahney. Padma Shri is one of India's highest civilian honours and the subject as a a Padmashree awardee (for social work) is definitely notable. The article needs a rewrite to add references, remove peacockery and correct tone, but that is not a reason for deletion. Abecedare (talk) 00:57, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so consensus may be reached. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, – Juliancolton  &#124; Talk 03:28, 25 April 2009 (UTC)


 * Keep. Only 2095 people have received the Padma Shri in over 50 years in a country with a present population of well over a billion. How can any recipient be said not to be notable? Let's use a bit of common sense. Phil Bridger (talk) 22:45, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Keep Notable. Leader in his field and has won substantial recognitions. Hopefully someone with access to sources in that area can improve the citations because Google isn't much use. ChildofMidnight (talk) 00:36, 27 April 2009 (UTC)
