Contested deletion

This article should not be speedily deleted for lack of asserted importance because while the original author did not do a good job establishing WP:Notability and WP:RS, there are a number of references to Dalpat Singh in mainstream media (and the Presidents of India and Israel) that establish presumed notability. Over the next few days, I can add the following links to the article to help it meet threshold:
