I cannot find any reliable, secondary coverage of this topic. I was thinking of boldly redirecting it to the page of the parent organization, but figured I'd do it via AfD so that it doesn't get recreated without sources. Vanamonde93 ( talk) 17:38, 3 December 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep. Trade unions are generally notable. This looks to be a pretty large one and has been around for nearly fifty years. Given its website is in Hindi it may be a good idea to do a search in that language. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 16:08, 4 December 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Trade unions in general might be notable, but we already have an article on the parent organization; Bharatiya Mazdoor Sangh. Does the subsidiary require a separate page? I would say not. Vanamonde93 ( talk) 17:42, 4 December 2015 (UTC) reply
  • Appears to be more of an autonomous union within a confederation than a simple subsidiary, so yes, I think it does deserve its own article. -- Necrothesp ( talk) 15:33, 10 December 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Weak keep, seems to pass WP:SIGNIFICANCE, although barely. The number of English-language sources is very low: [1], [2], and perhaps [3] (mere acknowledgement of existence). Might be more important for hi-wiki. kashmiri TALK 00:52, 17 December 2015 (UTC) reply

  • Keep for now only if it can be considerably better improved and, if not, nominate again for AfD attention. SwisterTwister talk 06:43, 17 December 2015 (UTC) reply
    • User:SwisterTwister, that is a very big "if." I didn't nominate this on a whim; a lot of my editing has been on South Asian political organizations. I searched quite a bit for coverage, and then sent it here when I found none. If you can give me some suggestions as to how improvements can be made, I will gladly withdraw the nom and make the improvements myself, since consensus here is tending towards keeping.
