Keep. Seems to be more commonly referred to as "Baba Jitto". Under that name, it's not hard to find some sources:

The article is weak because it is written from a believer's standpoint and retells a legend as fact, without the caveat that this is the story. It needs lines like "Both of these divine souls are worshiped in the form of total God today" rewritten entirely. But, the subject seems like a notable one. (Incidentally, "non-notable saint" seems almost oxymoronic) Mortee (talk) 00:23, 20 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete:This article is bad from a quality standpoint; and a blatant violation of WP:NPOV. The state of the article, and the likelyness that the neutrality of the article will be disrupted by the non-neutral writing style of the original article if it gets rewritten lead me to the suggestion of applying WP:TNT.Burning Pillar (talk) 14:25, 23 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]
