Challenging a removed PROD. Does not meet the definition of a notable politician(holds no public office and has not won election to one). Most of the sources here consist of party activities or Mr. Singh making political statements. 331dot (talk) 08:52, 16 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. People do not get Wikipedia articles just for being vice-presidents of political party youth wings, and the referencing consists of a mix of primary sourcing that isn't support for notability at all, glancing namechecks of his existence in sources that aren't about him, and sourcing where he's the person doing the speaking rather than the person being spoken about — none of which are support for notability at all.

Keep: I believe that as he is the Vice President of a prominent political party so his article should be there in this encyclopedia or at least redirect to Jammu & Kashmir National Conference but must not be deleted. Pok aiᗙ Happy New Year!

Pokai This person is not the "Vice President of a prominent political party", they are the Vice President of the youth wing of a political party. Even setting that aside, "Vice President of a prominent political party" is not part of the notability criteria for politicians, meaning he would need to be shown to meet the broader definition of a notable person. The article does not do that at present, as the only claim to notability is "he usually raises issues of common people", without describing any influence or significance in doing so. 331dot (talk) 21:20, 23 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
