Unfortunately, the article is not close to meeting the GA criteria at this time.

Prose: The prose could use improvement. In particular, there are many short paragraphs that should be combined into a more cohesive whole.
Verifiability: Considerable parts of the article are not referenced, for example most of the "Degrees and posts held" section.
MOS: There are several issues here. First, there are some bare links in the references. Many of them contain errors or have incorrect capitalization. Also, you have image sandwiching which is against MOS:IMAGELOC. The lede is too long per WP:LEDE, and does not adhere to WP:CITELEAD. The infobox also does not adhere to WP:INFOBOXCITE.
Coverage: I'm not in the best position to evaluate this, but considering that he was the head of government for one of the largest countries in the world, I would expect that there may be aspects that are neglected in this article (only 24kb readable prose, see Article size).
NPOV: Again, I am not be the best person to evaluate this, but statements like "Singh will not be conducting research but instead interacting with students and departments to inspire them." lead me to wonder if parts of the article may be too promotional.

These issues are above and beyond what is expected to be accomplished in a GA review. I recommend that the nominator fix these issues and renominate. b ui dhe (formerly Catrìona) 10:40, 18 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
