The consensus of the 2014 discussion was keep, based on it being an accredited degree-granting institution. The days when verifiable existence was enough per WP:SCHOOLOUTCOMES are long gone. The only source that has ever been cited is the college website.

Searches in English and Bengali found passing mentions, an opinion piece that describes its founding (but is not reliable for facts, per WP:RSEDITORIAL),[1], routine coverage and press releases.[2] There is also a pair of stories from December 2023 alleging corruption.[3][4] The scenario is difficult to follow, the principal denies everything, and nothing more has been written, so it's unclear what weight to give them towards establishing notability.

Comment: I'm not seeing a source for its affiliation with National University, Bangladesh. Are we sure it's actually affiliated with that school? -- asilvering (talk) 06:22, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
- Yes, it is affiliated.[5]. Redirect is an acceptable alternative, although it raises the question of what the criteria are for inclusion in the "Prominent affiliated colleges" list. --Worldbruce (talk) 08:54, 17 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
