Delete – Like other "up and coming influencer" spam we see here on Wikipedia, all of the sources except one are manufactured to create the illusion of notability:

[1] Indian website that republishes whatever is sent to them

[2] "Partnered Content"

[3] University newspaper

[4] (republished in Yahoo News) Self-published Indian blog

[5] A fake source made to look like this defunct city newspaper, only publishes submitted promo material from "influencers"

[6] This source appears not to be an actual local newspaper, but it republishes any submitted material.

Comment: I did well research before I decided to write an article about a medical student, who shot to fame at such a young age and won two scholarships to attend the Solihull School, which is one of the oldest and top schools in the UK and famous people who attended this school include Will Grigg, Aoife Mannion, Stewart Lee, Frank H. T. Rhodes, Michael Buerk, Frank Foster (cricketer). A complete list of famous people from around the world who educated at Solihull School can be found Solihull school famous alumni, Notable Old Silhillians

Being a medical student myself I know how important and big achievement it is to earn their scholarships.

This guy has been featured in various publications including "CNN-News18" which is India's one of the top leading news channels. Its references are frequently used on Wiki articles.

Delete: Fails
WP:GNG because all referenced sources are marketing churn and author's argument of notability is illogical with respect to who gets to be in Wikipedia. Lots of people go to good schools where famous people went; some of them have scholarships. Some of them are even a couple of years younger than their classmates. It doesn't mean all those people get to be in an encyclopedia. Good students who went to well-known preparatory schools and go on to professional school are a dime a dozen in the actual real world. - Julietdeltalima (talk) 17:40, 7 November 2019 (UTC)[reply
