Keep per WP:GEOLAND. Any formally recognized populated place will do, and this one has some passing mentions in major Pakistani newspapers (Dawn[1] and The Express Tribune[2]) and a list of schools (#63, not to be confused with schools in the other Kahi, Pakistan) Clarityfiend (talk) 00:33, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep Its a town/village in Pakistan in the Nowshera district. Per WP:GEOLAND (Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low.) it is notable per our guidelines. The town's population seems to be a bit larger too and they have at least a high school (Transfers, postings made in Education Dept), a large cement factory (Cement factory) and a significant power grid station which has been the site of riots (Protests in Nowshera) There is also a member of the Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provincial parliament from this town Baseer Ahmad Khattak (election results) and seems to still live there. English sources mention this town only in passing, but it is very likely that sources and coverage in a local language of Pakistan exist. The article obviously is uncited and should be rewritten, but AFD is not the place for that. A bad article is not a reason for deletion and notability is clearly given. The article should therefore stay (even if we have to reduce to a stub). Dead Mary (talk) 12:23, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I massively trimmed and rewrote the article and added some of the above mentioned sources. It is still a small stub, but the village does indeed exist. Dead Mary (talk) 13:01, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:GEOLAND. -- Necrothesp (talk) 15:32, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
