  • Comment Well, the Indian government doesn't think of this as a hoax.[1] The paper exists and has quite a decent circulation, if the Indian government's circulation figures are to be believed. But this is not to say that every newspaper with a decent circulation needs to be kept. Lourdes 19:46, 14 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment That site looks as though it was put up yesterday. Certainly they seemed to have come into existence on Jan 19, 2015, but doesn't seem to reflect on what you would find as a normal web based newspaper. Seems to be orientated towards the yoof hence the look and feel. I think we can close. Withdrawn by Nominator Clearly a real paper. scope_creep (talk) 14:28, 21 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
