{{AfC comment|1=Thank you for your submission. Before this draft can be accepted, several statements require verification with reliable, independent sources per [[BP:V]] and [[BP:BLP]]. While many major achievements are supported by sources, a number of claims are currently unsupported or not fully verified by the citations provided. | |||
Please review and address the following: | |||
* Add reliable citations for the subject's date of birth, parents, education (including Kirori Mal College, University College London and Commonwealth Scholarship), FRSA fellowship, and Kentucky Colonel honour. | |||
* Ensure every citation explicitly supports the statement it is attached to. Some sources do not appear to verify the accompanying claims (for example, the statements regarding founding ''Action for a Resilient Tomorrow'', representing India on behalf of UNFCCC, and raising awareness about Assam's wetlands). | |||
* Replace the Wikipedia article currently used as a reference for the Karmaveer Chakra Award with a reliable independent source. | |||
* The Amazon listing should only be used to verify basic publication details (such as ISBN), not biographical claims. | |||
* Remove or reword any material that cannot be verified directly from the cited sources, ensuring that no statement goes beyond what the source explicitly supports. | |||
Once these issues have been addressed and all significant claims are supported by reliable, independent sources, the draft can be reassessed.
