Delete — Basically what nom GPL93 said. I can’t seem to find in-depth significant coverage in reliable sources discussing subject of article. Also they fail to satisfy WP:NPOL. Celestina007 (talk) 11:46, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Keep According to WP:NPOL it states that notable politicians should have held national or state/wide office. This individual has held the office for the National General Secretary of the noteworthy Shiromani Akali Dal Party, Youth Wing. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AutonomousUser (talk • contribs) 22:07, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

"Office" refers to government office, not a post within a political party. He also wasn't the overall general secretary but the youth wing secretary. Additionally it doesn't address the fact that literally none of the references come close to establishing notability. GPL93 (talk) 19:56, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The office was not just a post within a political party it was notable recognition. During the time he held office, the political party was in ruling and the General Secretary's, Youth Wing or General, were considered to have a government office in the state of Punjab. Furthermore, the individual has a University named after him, honouring his notability and influence which show up on various sources following a search engine look up. — Preceding unsigned comment added by AutonomousUser (talk • contribs) 22:07, 23 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

AutonomousUser you wouldn't happen to be another sock puppet of Gbhundar, who also only wrote about this subject's family, would you? GPL93 (talk) 17:58, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Delete.Non-notable politician, lacking in-depth, non-trivial support. Fails WP:POLITICIAN and WP:GNG. Akhiljaxxn (talk) 10:44, 24 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
