Keep the PCM is a growing important political group in Lesotho, as evidenced by Google search results, both in books and MULTIPLE newspapers. It is an important part of the debate about Lesotho's merger into South Africa. Considering that almost non-existent Indian political parties have stubs, it is hardly justifiable to remove this article. K a r n a (talk) 13:01, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: instead of deletion, this article could be merged with Proposals for South Africa to annex Lesotho which covers substantially the same topic. - htonl (talk) 23:31, 20 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion so a clearer consensus may be reached.

Keep The Guardian article already linked and this book entry Historical Dictionary of Lesotho constitute significant coverage in multiple independent reliable sources. That said, the above-suggested merge might not be a bad idea but that is more properly discussed on the articles' talk pages. 24.151.116.25 (talk) 20:39, 26 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]
