BLP of a subject who is the general secretary of the Rastriya Janata Party Nepal, a relatively small political party. Only relevant guidelines seem to be WP:NPOL—which he does not meet, as he is a party official, not an elected legislator—and WP:BASIC, which I cannot establish either. [1] has some mentions of him, and the references in the article that aren't dead have some passing mentions, but I'm not seeing sustained coverage. I suggest either an outright delete or a delete-and-redirect to Rastriya Janata Party Nepal. AleatoryPonderings (talk) 04:00, 27 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Delete a non-notable political functionary.John Pack Lambert (talk) 13:41, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep - prominent actor in national politics, and at one point leader of militant group that negotiated a peace settlement with the national government. See [2], [3], [4], [5], etc. --Soman (talk) 22:06, 28 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

• Redirect to Janatantrik Terai Mukti Morcha which seems to contain a few verifiable/verified claims about his activities. Rastriya Janata Party Nepal is gone, and it's not clear what position, if any, he holds in the successor People's Socialist Party, Nepal. IIRC, his militant group came about by further splintering of a former splinter group which was thought to have a few hundred men to begin with. I find it unlikely that he would have received significant coverage for any of the positions he has held. Fails WP:GNG, fails WP:NPOL, at least at this time.

• Redirect as suggested, per WP:CHEAP. I recall that we have sometimes "redistricted" party officers to the party article. Bearian (talk) 20:05, 9 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]
