Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Tejraj Dedavat
I don't have the same telepathic powers as the prod nominator to enable me to know whether the article was written by a close associate of the article subject, but I agree that this is an obscure, unnotable local businessman. If you weed out all of the |peacockery (don't you just love "whose presence was felt like a roaring lion"?) all you seem to be left with was that he ran Mumbai's number one umbrella manufacturing business. Google Books and News archive searches find nothing and http://www.google.co.uk/search?num=100&hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Aen-GB%3Aofficial&hs=86z&q=%22Tejraj+Dedavat%22&btnG=Search&meta= a straight web search just gets Wikipedia mirrors and a blog
