This seems to be a hoax. The coordinates are the same as for the town of Mangaldoi. Image in the infobox is made of photos of Berlin, Copenhagen and Bangkok. Word "Namkhola" is not mentioned in any of the cited sources. Vanjagenije (talk) 15:02, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Definitely a hoax.--Jeffrd10 (talk) 15:29, 15 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep, but stubify. Somebody has delusions of grandeur, but there is a village of that name[1], a Namkhola High School, and (be still my heart) apparently a Central Bank of India branch there[2]. Clarityfiend (talk) 01:14, 16 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Keep but stubify per Clarityfiend. This is a verifiable village. The hoax content needs to be removed and the coordinates need to be corrected. • Gene93k (talk) 16:59, 18 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Keep; real place, but as Clarityfiend notes most of the content is bogus, including the alleged sources contained in the article. The population of the village appears to be near 3000 persons as of 2010. [3]. Carlossuarez46 (talk) 01:26, 19 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
