• Reinstate and protect: Prior to this edit, the page was about the Uttar Pradesh MLA and Minister of State, who clearly meets WP:POLITICIAN. It then became a crude amalgam of surviving material about the MLA overlaid with insubstantial stuff about a blogger. It has since been overwritten multiple times, sometimes by children boasting of their exam marks I suggest closing the AfD, reverting to the version at 01:13, 22 May 2016, and protecting the page against further incursions by the vain.

• Snow Keep: It is sad that an article was vandalised for more than a year no one noticed. While I was looking into page's history, I didn't find any good revision to restore. Even when it was about M.L.A Mishra, it didn't adhere to NPOV (stunning vicotry ). Replaced all contents with 2-sentence stub. It should be snow kept because subject is an elected politician (WP:NPOL). Anup [Talk] 21:51, 10 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep: I didn't look at article's history but judging from its current state, it doesn't look promotional. Current subject is an Indian MLA and they are notable per WP:NPOL. Pratyush (talk) 08:43, 11 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep Whatever the past flaws of the article, the current one is on a person who clearly meets the criteria for articles on politicians. Especially since Uttar Pradesh, where he serves as a member of the legislative assembly, has almsot 200,000 people, thus more than most countries.John Pack Lambert (talk) 20:27, 12 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
