Contested redirect. 95% of this article's content is already in the Sharad_Pawar biography, added to that is the fact that this whole episode appears very much to be a knee-jerk case of recentism, thus likely to be a severe distortion of the importance of the event in india and in the biography of the politician Ohconfucius ^{ping / poke} 07:03, 24 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There has already been a deletion discussion on the talk page. My view is that the section the main article can be trimmed and this page retained. If not, a proper merging of the content be done before making this page a redirect (there are some details on this page that aren't in the main article).

Merge to Sharad Pawar, as an event, although verified to reliable sources, does not appear to pass WP:CONTINUEDCOVERAGE, therefore a merger would be in order to the biography article. Moreover, the biography article does not meet size requirements for a spinout in accordance with WP:LIMIT.--RightCowLeftCoast (talk) 18:36, 25 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
