This is an autobiography that was deleted and (re)created several times. The problem is the WP:NOTABILITY. None of the sources cited is what we call reliable independent sources with significant coverage. All are personal or promotional pages, pages about his book(s), not about himself.

Delete because of no WP:NOTABILITY established here and plus, I didn't find any media coverage of this person. I also suspect that this article could be an autobiography or a case of WP:COI because the username of the user who created this article is similar with the name of the subject here.

Delete: Of the links offered in the article, only the DNA India piece might stand as a reference, but that is merely an unbylined two-paragraph piece on the subject as a student who writes/self-publishes. I also found another DNA India piece ("Duped Amdavadi Writer Opens Own Publishing House" – via HighBeam (subscription required) ) but neither of these is sufficient for biographical notability, whether as WP:AUTHOR or more broadly.

Delete, per nom. Reads like a (self)promotion piece. Kierzek (talk) 17:04, 10 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
