I would suggest removing the line "Let us see how long it is before Mhow gets its municipality." This looks like more of a wish rather than content.

The Etymology section has too many weasel words:

It is believed that MHOW is an acronym for 'Military Headquarters of Western India'. Another commonly heard expansion of MHOW is 'Military Headquarters of War'. However, it is also suggested that the village which existed on the site prior to the foundation of the British cantonment was called Mhow Gaon (Mhow village), and therefore these acronyms may not be the origin of the name "Mhow".

Believed by whom? Commonly heard by whom? Also suggested by whom? Does anyone have reliable sources which give info about this? --Kprateek88(Talk | Contribs) 10:56, 5 April 2007 (UTC) Yes the MHOW being equivalent to headquarters of war bit is widely known in but nobody can point out a valid reference. I would like to point out that the links in the article are broken. Armybrat 10:53, 10 April 2007 (UTC)
