Keep. The term is mentioned in passing in K.L. Shrivastava; Arun Kumar (1 May 2014). Geo-Resources. Scientific Publishers. pp. 637–. ISBN 978-93-86237-36-1. but other than that it is a placename of some sorts in India, there's not much else there. But this article mentions "Surpura Village". Google search for "Surpura village" suggests this place. So it likely exists and is not a hoax and I think all populated places are notable per WP:NGEO. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 14:04, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Piotrus:Still, no significant information is provided by these sources regarding the village. See also WP:1S. Thanks, EDG 543 (talk) 14:35, 2 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

IMHO we default to NGEO "Legally recognized, populated places are presumed to be notable." --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 04:07, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Piotrus:True, but, once again, One sentence does not an article make. Thanks, EDG 543 (talk) 13:22, 3 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

We can wait for others to comment but I don't think that being an unreferenced WP:SUBSTUB is ground for deletion if the subject is otherwise notable. WP:DELETIONISNOTCLEANUP. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 08:58, 4 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Keep per WP:GEOLAND. Article is about a village that has a dam and its own post office. Having a post office signifies that it has decent population. I have added some references and expanded the stub. --DBig Xrayᗙ 07:29, 6 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]
