m Djm-leighpark moved page Draft:Sanjib Baruah to Sanjib Baruah: BOLD move to mainspace while we are still hot on the topic. Multiple people indicate NAUTHOR passed and BLP issues seem addressed. DRV likely waste of time and if people unhappy AFD accepted, re-draftication refused and DRV will result if forced. Thankyou.

{{AFC comment|1=I checked the references in the first. They are insufficient for a BLP. There is lots and lots of passing mentions, nothing in-depth which can qualify as a [[WP:SECONDARY]] source, that is the gold standard for BLP's. They're must be sufficient secondary available. They're may be book reviews available, which would enable a pass on [[WP:NAUTHOR]]. If you can find several of them, it may help.
