Prod removed without comment. My concern was Appears to fail WP:SOLDIER - Shaurya Chakra is a 3rd level gallantry award. The other refs might be a case of NotNews Gbawden (talk) 15:47, 12 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep passes WP:SOLDIER and WP:GNG. See [1][2]. Sdmarathe (talk) 04:29, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep passes some notability. 18:57, 19 May 2018 (UTC)Truthspeakerknows (talk)
Keep since subject meets criterion #4: Played an important role in a significant military event such as a major battle or campaign. -The Gnome (talk) 06:41, 13 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep - he certainly meets WP:GNG from the number of suitable refs available. I am not sure however that he does meet point 4 in WP:SOLDIER as mooted by The Gnome - would the operation be considered a major battle? Do we have any suggested guidelines on what makes a battle major? If it is sufficient to make it suitable to be in the same category as a campaign, very substantial would seem logical, but I can't be positive. Clarity?

Delete per nom. Fails SOLDIER and WP:NOTNEWS. The military gave him only a 3rd level award for his actions. That speaks volumes. Also, it's very doubtful that press coverage will be long-lasting. Clarityfiend (talk) 07:08, 14 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

Delete: does not meet WP:ANYBIO; significant RS coverage not found. Does not meet WP:SOLDIER either; 3rd level award does not help. K.e.coffman (talk) 16:45, 19 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep passes WP:GNG And #4 WP:NSOLDIER Razer(talk) 19:20, 19 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Weak Keep seems to meet General Notability Guideline. FloridaArmy (talk) 22:26, 19 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Delete, merge also possible with Sameer Tiger (possibly to a "killing of" article). Subject doesn't pass presumed on WP:SOLDIER (heading the operation to kill Sameer Tiger would not SOLDIER(4)). There is some coverage of this encounter (it seems Tiger or his killing at least do pass GNG) - leading to coverage of Shukla - however this is of a WP:BLP1E nature, and coverage isn't wide/in-depth enough to warrant a 1E exception. Should Shukla do something else that is notable (becoming a 2E), or advance in rank, he might be notable in the future. As is - TOOSOON.Icewhiz (talk) 08:42, 21 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Keep significant global and national coverage of the subject exists. Coverage further concerns more than just one aspect.[3] Lorstaking (talk) 10:05, 25 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
