BLP of a civil servant supported by passing mentions and interviews. Unelected and does not pass WP:NPOL. No in depth independent coverage. Mccapra (talk) 22:46, 3 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep: This living person involved in various major responsible projects and this article comes under law enforcement. 223.189.177.246 (talk) 20:51, 5 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete. "Involved in various major projects" is not, in and of itself, a notability claim — to be notable for that, it would be necessary to write a substantive article about the significance of his involvement in various major projects, analyzing that work in depth. Just listing roles he's had is not enough to make him notable for those roles per se, and sourcing it to glancing namechecks of his existence in photo captions and news articles about other things is not enough to get him over WP:GNG on the sourcing. Nothing here is "inherently" notable enough to exempt the article from having to be a lot more substantive, or the sourcing from having to be a lot more about him, than this.

• Comment: The subject is not a politician. He is a public servant at Government of India. Didnt find anything much about the subject in google search, except few passing references. (Ashique2020 (talk) 03:03, 15 May 2021 (UTC))[reply]

• Keep: This person have significant roles and works is Chhattisgarh cadre. 2409:4052:230F:1A31:9444:A147:5219:BE71 (talk)
• Delete. My searches find only trivial mentions that are insufficient for notability under the GNG; non-elected civil servants don't pass WP:NPOL. The keep !votes seem to be more WP:ILIKEIT than anything else and are thus in my view unconvincing. Extraordinary Writ (talk) 16:49, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]

• delete nonnotable mid-rank functionary. Lembit Staan (talk) 19:21, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Comment. I am surprized it is relisted: there were no valid votes to keep. Lembit Staan (talk) 19:22, 18 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete per nom. Unelected civil servants do not meet WP:NPOL, no WP:SIGCOV found. -- Ab207 (talk) 07:16, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete - Trivial coverage and fails not only GNG but also NPOl. Missvain (talk) 18:02, 21 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Fails GNG, just routine coverage. Darktaste (talk) 11:43, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
