Submission declined on 15 July 2025 by Abhiimanyu7 (talk). This submission's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject (see the guidelines on the notability of people). Before any resubmission, additional references meeting these criteria should be added (see technical help and learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue). If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia. This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article.

Comment: Fails WP:GNG and WP:ACAD: While the subject is a senior scientist affiliated with RRCAT and IEEE, the draft lacks significant coverage in independent, reliable sources. The current references (e.g., SiliconIndia, Vidwan, and IEEE event listings) are either directory-style, affiliated content, or self-submitted profiles and do not establish the subject's encyclopedic notability. Without in-depth third-party coverage such as news articles, peer recognition, or academic awards, the draft does not meet Wikipedia's notability criteria for academics. Consider merging any notable contributions into broader topics like RRCAT or IEEE-related articles per WP:MERGE. --Warm Regards, Abhimanyu7 talk 15:15, 15 July 2025 (UTC)
Manmath Kumar Badapanda[1][2][3] (born 20 April 1966) is an Indian Scientist and an Electrical Engineer. He is a Scientist at the Raja Ramanna Centre for Advanced Technology (RRCAT), Indore, under the Department of Atomic Energy, Government of India and currently serving is Head of its RF Power Supplies Section as well as Vice-Chairman of IEEE Madhya Pradesh Section[4] (Madhya Pradesh and Chhattisgarh), India.
