The subject is claimed to be the President of a student's union in East Uttar Pradesh, a state in India. Hasn't held an elected position yet at the state or national level. Handful of sources mention him with respect to a court dispute. I haven't been able to find sources confirming subject's qualification on WP:GNG or WP:BIO. I suggest deletion of this biography.

Delete per nomination. Not yet notable per WP:POLITICIAN or WP:BIO: leader of a regional group of the student wing of a political party, and I can find no significant coverage online in WP:Reliable sources, just passing mentions. Uncle Roy (talk) 11:16, 27 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete. I'm frankly stunned by just how often we seem to get articles about student union leaders in India. But that's not a notability claim that gets a person into Wikipedia in and of itself, and there isn't anywhere near enough reliable source coverage about him to get him over WP:GNG for it. Also, à propos of nothing, where in Jesus Christ's underpants did anybody ever get the notion that that is where an article's infobox goes? Bearcat (talk) 16:28, 27 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete I am stunned by that "infobox". Didnt the creator even bother to look at some other article's source code for that? Instead he copied a wikitable from somewhere. @Bearcat: your comment lol'ed me! :-) —usernamekiran(talk) 22:28, 27 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete per WP:SOAP and WP:POLOUTCOMES. We are not a web host for student activists, who in my day (now I sound old, huh?) were dime a dozen. We almost never keep student political leaders, and in fact, a few years ago we went on a wholesale deletion of student senate/SA President articles. FWIW, I start grad school next week.
