- Comment The biographical information is OK, but there is nothing especially notable about the English description of his activities. According to Google Translate, the Tamil text at the end is a rather detailed description of his role in the granite quarry case. If it was translated, that might establish some notability as an anti-corruption crusader. – Margin1522 (talk) 15:32, 2 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. No evidence of notability.
- Do not Delete . Please do not delete this page. U.Sagayam is a person of self confidence, fighting the political system from inside, is a protagonist , fighting to remove bribery in Tamil Nadu. He is an IAS officer and has the caliber and the official power to do it. He is an inspiration to many young budding officers and youngsters who want to become IAS officers. லஞ்சம் தவிர்த்து நெஞ்சம் நிமிர்த்து [Reject Bribe, hold your head high] is a slogan which is motivating many officers these days to reject bribe.
- People wanting to know about him, come to wikipedia. If you delete this page, then it would be like snuffing the nascent flame, which when kindled would inspire youngsters and erradicate so many clutches from Tamil Nadu and India.

- Addendum. Found some additional sources covering the subject: a profile in Outlook, which has a circulation of ca. 500,000; a piece in DNA, whose website claims that it has 1.5 million readers in Mumbai; and a five-page piece on the granite-mining scandal in Frontline, an imprint of The Hindu Group whose website gives its average issue readership as 152,000. — Ammodramus (talk) 18:39, 16 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]
