::First of all, please avoid using AI-generated replies or providing AI-generated sources. Before questioning the deletion nomination, I request that you independently cross-check all the sources. Several of the provided links appear to be inaccessible, including the Open Library references, as shown in my [https://www.pasteboard.co/IeJiDkxMYTXO.jpg screenshot].
::Please verify whether these books and research papers actually exist and whether their publication details, authorship and contents can be independently confirmed.
::More importantly, the article still does not demonstrate compliance with Bharatpedia's General Notability Guidelines (GNG). A long list of references does not automatically establish notability. The sources must provide significant coverage of the subject in reliable, independent secondary publications.
::Please establish this through verifiable evidence rather than simply listing references. My nomination is based on the article's failure to demonstrate notability through reliable, independently verifiable sources.

Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed! Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by WikiDwarf was:
This draft's references do not show that the person meets Bharatpedia's criteria for inclusion for people. The draft requires multiple published secondary sources that:
provide significant coverage: discuss the person in detail, not brief mentions or interviews lacking independent analysis;
are reliable: from reputable outlets with editorial oversight;
are independent: not connected to the person, such as interviews, press releases, the subject's own website, or sponsored content.
Please add references that meet all three of these criteria. If none exist, the subject is not yet suitable for Bharatpedia.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit when they have been resolved.
If you would like to continue working on the submission, go to Draft:Syed_Raza_Imam and click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window.
If you now believe the draft cannot meet Bharatpedia's standards or do not wish to progress it further, you may request deletion. Please go to Draft:Syed_Raza_Imam, click on the "Edit" tab at the top of the window, add "{{Db-g7}}" at the top of the draft text and click the blue "publish changes" button to save this edit.
If you do not make any further changes to your draft, in 6 months, it will be considered abandoned and may be deleted.
