The article is written like a political promotion. The notability of the perosn is not established. As I understood, he is just a member of the local parliament. None of the sources cited contain any kind of significant coverage, except about his car crash incident. I searched Google news, but fount only a couple of results, with no significant coverage [1].

Keep and cleanup - Sources indicate that he is a Member of the Legislative Assembly (India) for Bihar which I believe makes him notable per WP:NPOL#1: "members or former members of a national, state or provincial legislature". See, e.g., [2]. 24.151.10.165 (talk) 21:17, 23 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]
