A sad event, but does not pass GNG MistyGraceWhite (talk) 11:12, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

Keep I started the article and within 3 minutes this user has posted the delete message. Uddhav Thackeray, UP Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath Opposition leaders including ex-Chief Minister of UP Akhilesh Yadav, politicians Priyanka Gandhi and Sanjay Raut have all talked about the murder and this is no longer a small case. Police had to disclose the religion of the accused to prevent the issue from being politicized on the religion grounds. Please do not delete the article.

Delete per WP:NOTNEWS, this a very recent event, and there is no indication that coverage of it will be lasting, as sadly both murders and politicians grandstanding for a brief surge of support following a tragic event are both common. If coverage does turn out to be maintained beyond one news cycle, the article can always be recreated. Devonian Wombat (talk) 12:48, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
keep - there may be many murders in India but ones involving sadhus are flashpoints. [https://english.jagran.com/india/two-saadhus-found-dead-inside-temple-in-ups-bulandshahr-allegedly-by-man-they-had-accused-of-theft-10011200] The same month 2020 Palghar mob lynching happened. The story isn't going away anytime soon. Grmike (talk) 21:22, 1 May 2020 (UTC)grmike
Delete I checked about the subject and see that the subject attracted significant coverage only on 28 April. It is far from meeting WP:LASTING. Harmanprtjhj (talk) 08:06, 5 May 2020 (UTC)

Delete I have attempted to simplify the sock version but I don't see any justification for keeping the article since it fails notability. Srijanx22 (talk) 15:32, 6 May 2020 (UTC)
