- There should be no problem with Wikipedia having an article on the movement to form a state for Bhojpuri speakers if it can be properly sourced. However, this article does not discuss that at all. It is a copypaste of Purvanchal, presumably done as a WP:POVFORK to establish the editor's preferred POV name of the region (a copypaste done without attribution, by the way, making it also a WP:COPYVIO). If it really is a verifiable alternate name for the region, then that can be added to the Purvanchal article. This page should be WP:TNT deleted with no prejudice against an article on the political movement being created. Spinning Spark 15:37, 28 October 2018 (UTC)
