- Delete very worthy aims of publicising bad effects about drinking smoking,chewing tobacco etc. But unfortunately not notable. Dlyons493 Talk 12:40, 28 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete unverifiable, 4 Google hits. Article doesn't even make clear exactly what this is or what it does, vaguely "...promoting awareness for national integrity,communal harmony,to initate drives for spreading awareness about evils..." etc. Seems to be some sort of charity, and as a charity must be held to the same verifiability standards as other subjects, if not moreso since false charities are a common scam (not that I'm necessarily saying that's the case here).

- Comment - Please note that India is nowhere near as wired a country as the United States or Western Europe, and that a lot of organizations affecting tens or hundreds of thousands of people in India (and thus notable) are not reflected on Google. I agree that it should be deleted, but I thought I'd point out the very Western-biased nature of the Google Test. I would encourage you not to use it for topics outside the heavily wired world.

- Delete per above. I originally marked it for cleanup, but in retrospect I guess I was being too kind! ;) ekedolphin 23:32, 28 April 2006 (UTC)

- Delete, but not per notability or some sort of "BJPCruft" guideline. The article is completely unsourced, unverified, and badly written. Without sources, we can't establish notability, so we should judge the article on other merits or lack thereof. Captainktainer 09:42, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
- Delete, per above. Spent 15 minutes searching for the "registered" charity. Did find one with very similar name (Vishwa Hindu Parishad), but completely different goals. Regardless, since we can't find any other source, the article is uneditable for lack of knowledge and the article really really needs to be edited. MartinFloyd 18:48, 29 April 2006 (UTC)
- Strong delete, seems suspiciously like the "Born 1956, Science Graduate" put it up herself. Also, I suspect the registered address has an additional role as someone's shop. Hornplease 08:19, 30 April 2006 (UTC)
