Speedy delete - the article already says its not notable: "circulation is mainly limited to Tripura,..." Even assuming it is claimed to be notable, I don't see significant evidence. Bearian (talk) 15:56, 6 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Keep Tripura has a population of 4 million, that's not an insignficiant population. In January 1982 the Press Council ruled in favour of the paper regarding the withdrawal of state government advertising due to articles critial of the government. In 2010 it was the fourth highest selling daily newspaper in the state. It's more than reasonable to assume that there would be much more available in Bengali and in offline sources.

Keep: squeaks by WP:GNG, but probably more sources closer to home area. Tripura's 4 million would make it larger than half of the US states (26) and all of the territories. // Timothy :: talk 21:30, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
