Delete. I contributed to the previous discussion which was just six months ago. At that time I noted there appeared to be very little by way of coverage of this individual in reliable sources. I still can't see any particularly credible claim to notability. Drchriswilliams (talk) 21:26, 15 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
The person has been elevated from CEO of a particular region to the president of the entire group for deletion. More importantly, like mentioned in the article, he heads the biggest chain of hospitals in the entire country and he is the person who actually brought the concept of emergency medicine to the country. Also, one cannot say "At that time I noted there appeared to be very little by way of coverage of this individual in reliable sources". A supporting article from The Hindu, Bloomberg News, Deccan Chronicle, Fiji Sun have been provided. These are the most reputed publications nationally & globally. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wikiasian2408 (talk • contribs) 00:20, 16 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
My description of my contribution at the previous AfD was accurate. What has changed? The Deccan Chronicle article from March 2016 looks like a lifestyle feature for 30th anniversary of his marriage. The Bloomberg link does not work but was likely a listing. The Fiji Sun article is new since the last AfD nomination, but it looks like a tabloid regurgitation of a press release linked to a conference he was speaking at. While he was interviewed by the Hindu for their piece published in November 2015, this is in his capacity as the president of the hospital chain. So, it appears that this article has been recreated with enough extra references added in to avoid speedy deletion. But, while the Deccan Herald article is interesting, I'm still not convinced that there has been a significant change in a depth of coverage of this individual that would demonstrate that he meets WP:BASIC.

Delete - there is zero evidence that this person meets WP:PROF, WP:CREATIVE, or WP:GNG. With all due respect for a friend who was an anesthesiologist, they are not inherently notable. In fact, they are often discriminated against in the ranks of academic medicine. Every medical doctor, by dint of their social status, eventually gets into the newspapers, so local coverage, even in reliable sources, does not prove notability. That he runs a big chain of hospitals is not remarkable in itself, if there is no source that attests that he did something notable. We are not a LinkedIn for doctors.

Do Not Delete I strongly contest this deletion, and both the reasons mentioned above.

While "Not enough credible/reliable sources of information" is one of them, the other person says, he is not remarkable enough -

Here are atleast 30 reliable sources of information about the same person, varying from listings in global business databases like Bloomberg to national media-houses of 5 different countries such as Times of Oman, Deccan Chronicle, The Hindu, Arabian Business, NDTV, Trade Arabia, Times Of India, Fiji Sun, Business Line, Mint_(newspaper), The Economic Times, The Hans India, Nigeria CommunicationsWeek, The Financial Express (India) & So on :

Having said that, he is not just an anesthesiologist, he has been instrumental in bringing the emergency medicine concept to India, which has had a very positive impact on the healthcare system in this country on a macro-level . He is also the first doctor in the history of, not just this country, but outside Europe to be honoured with a fellowship of the College of Emergency Medicine, UK and the first in India to receive a fellowship of the International Federation for Emergency Medicine. In addition to this, he has also played Ranji Trophy cricket which is the highest level of national cricket in the country. Moreover, the very fact that he has been covered by numerous diverse media houses multiple times across various 5 different countries is an indicator of his stature and achievements.
