PROD?

Deputy chief minister of a state with 33 million people? That's larger than any US state other than CA, and just a tad smaller than CA. Clearly meets WP:POLITICIAN: Politicians and judges who have held international, national or sub-national (statewide/provincewide) office. Clearly not a "Non-notable, local politician".

According to our List of countries by population, Jharkhand would fall between Canada and Iraq, or >25x as populous as the place I come from... It does need expansion and better sourcing, of course. Guettarda (talk) 13:19, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Source calls him a BJP leader, as does this one. Another source mentions him being appointed BJP leader, presumably at the state level. I can't speak to the quality of the sources, but certainly there's enough out there with just a quick look at Google to suggest notability. Guettarda (talk) 13:28, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please convert "6th Chief Minister of Jharkhand" to "6th Person to be the Chief Minister of Jharkhand", since in the main article it is written "10th chief minister of Jharkhand state". Udaysm2206 (talk) 12:15, 29 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format. Why would you want it reworded (with no improvement on the sentence) from 6th to 6th if the main article says 10th? — {{U|Technical 13}} ^{(e • t • c)} 13:24, 29 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
