Unable to find GNG-level sources for this college. The only reliable source (the JSTOR one) has bare mentions of the college. Recommend redirect to Gurugram University. A previous PROD was contested. -MPGuy2824 (talk) 08:39, 20 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

  • Comment. Finding mentions of its predecessor school, Brayne Meo High School. At minimum redirect to the University it's affiliated to or to Nuh (city), where it's located — unsure which is best at present taking into account its roots. Not ruling out keep either. The college claims importance to the Mewat region of Haryana as the only minority college in Western part of the country; presumably referring to the Mewati language, though it's not altogether clear.[1] Needs a further look.

    Here is another source I found which mention's Brayne Meo High School and how today it has been renamed Yasin Meo Degree college. [2] Do read and inform whether it is a valid source to confirm the notability of the subject... Ah507 (talk) 03:56, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    Yes, the Brayne Meo School is mentioned but I'd find it difficult to expand the article on the College from this source, which mostly concentrates on Meo relations with Hindu adherents in 1920–33. I didn't see a mention of the College, but may have missed this. The evidence I'm finding from sources is there may be sufficient material to support an article on Chaudhri Yasin Khan, after who the College is named. He is the father of Tayyab Husain, the College's founder. What's needed is independent confirmation of the College's claims found in the history section of its website. I don't think proof that it derives from the Brayne Meo School is enough. Rupples (talk) 07:56, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
    did you see check this source? [3] It has mentions of Chaudhary Yasin Khan and the formation of the college, which confirms the colleges origins and existence, historically speaking. The college is also mentioned on government websites. This is the government website for the Nuh district in Haryana, India which mentions the existence of the college. [4] This source also mentions the college. [5] Ah507 (talk) 05:24, 23 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete No sources on Google or Scholar rather than an article from The Times of India but it is a mention. Toadette (Happy holiday!) 10:25, 21 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]
