• Comment. According to the references provided, this person was a state MLA, passing WP:POLITICIAN. I will look for more reliable sources to confirm this for a keep. • Gene93k (talk) 01:27, 22 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. I found a Times of India article confirming she was a state MLA, passing WP:POLITICIAN. I also found numerous Google Book hits covering her activism. • Gene93k (talk) 01:43, 22 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep. Google search may not be a great method to establish notability of a person in South Asia who was active 50 or so years ago. Books establish the notability. --Dwaipayan (talk) 14:35, 22 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep The subject was a MLA (Member of Legislative Assembly), passing WP:POLITICIAN. Article also mentions the subject was a freedom fighter of India and becomes notable. In this angle, this article is a strong keep.-Rayabhari (talk) 04:09, 23 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
• Keep- as per above. It clearly passes WP:GNG, WP:RS and WP:POLITICIAN. Available references (Considering the timeline) suggests that she is more than a notable figure. Speedy Keep. -- Bharathiya (talk) 10:38, 24 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
