No significant coverage in reliable sources.

Source analysis:

• A couple of premodern chronicles (Firishta, Salim).

• There is a source from 1946, which does not mention our subject. The same observations apply to the 1992 "encyclopedia" and Thaker (1970). A news-site, of unknown reliability, documenting the dilapidated condition of a tomb has been cited but it neither supports the preceding line nor has anything on our subject. Another news article, documenting a grave and attached legends, is cited but has nothing on our subject.

• All these sources have been used to engage in original research about possible connections between Bang and Vanga or go to tangent explorations, to inflate the article.

• Trautmann has the trivialest of mention. TrangaBellam (talk) 12:26, 18 April 2022 (UTC)

• Delete per norm. -- Mehedi Abedin 16:23, 18 April 2022 (UTC)
• Delete lot of WP:OR - e.g. Bang being equivalent to the Hindu Vanga. Most references do not include reference to Bang. --Redtigerxyz ^Talk 07:48, 23 April 2022 (UTC)
