Non-notable military officerunit, plus no sources. Clarityfiend (talk) 06:47, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

- Keep: Firstly, this is not an article about a person - rather a sub-group of Mukti Bahini during Bangladesh Liberation War. The existence and notability of the group is ascertained by Banglapedia; National Encyclopedia of Bangladesh and article in The Daily Star (Bangladesh). Unfortunately not much is available on internet about this group due to systematic bias against developing world topics. The current article certainly needs a major uplift, but it should comfortably pass any notability hurdle. Arman (Talk) 01:19, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
- Comment. My mistake - the article is about a unit, not a soldier. Still, collecting arms and developing(?) an area of unspecified size doesn't scream "keep" to me. Clarityfiend (talk) 02:35, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
