Deletion of Prof Rakesh Sinha (2nd nomination)

Comment: The article is a hot mess (of sockpuppetry or political partisanship, I know not) and Tpdwkouaa's valiant attempt at cleanup has all been lost by now. So we could go with  as a deletion rationale. But also, there is no reliable source here about the subject. All sources are the subject's own writings, blogs and other such unreliable sources, or reliably published articles about other subjects that don't provide any in-depth coverage of the subject. As such, we have no evidence that he passes

Comment: in preparation for this AfD I've attempted to https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Prof_Rakesh_Sinha&action=history reformat and partially clean up this article, so that its Wikipedia:UGLY|poor quality won't turn the discussion (including my own) away from more relevant BLP/NOR/GNG issues. All this being said, from having gone through the article, it appears that this guys only claim to fame is being on TV sometimes. He holds no distinguishing positions or status at his university, and pretty much fails the rest of . And aside from his professorship he really has nothing else BLP/GNG-wise to credit this article with, aside from being an occasional political personality
