The cited sources are a memorial newspaper piece, a list of 155 award recipients, and one sentence in an "On this day in the war" chronicle, a sentence that relates how he led a team in an attack on a Pakistani camp that killed "three associates of the Pakistan[is]". Searches of the usual Google types, De Gruyter, EBSCO, HighBeam, JSTOR, Project Muse, ProQuest, and eight national newspapers, including by Bengali-script name, found no other reliable sources.
The notability criteria for soldiers says they are notable if they were awarded their nation's highest award for valour or were awarded their nation's second-highest award for valour multiple times. The Bir Protik is Bangladesh's fourth-highest award for valour, analogous to a Bronze Star Medal in the U.S. military. Does not meet WP:BIO or WP:SOLDIER. --Worldbruce (talk) 14:59, 7 June 2017 (UTC)
