Keep Its a town/village in Pakistan in the
Nowshera district. Per WP:GEOLAND (Populated, legally recognized places are typically presumed to be notable, even if their population is very low.) it is notable per our guidelines. The town's population seems to be a bit larger too and they have at least a high school (
Transfers, postings made in Education Dept), a large cement factory (
Cement factory) and a significant power grid station which has been the site of riots (
Protests in Nowshera) There is also a member of the
Khyber Pakhtunkhwa provincial parliament from this town
Baseer Ahmad Khattak (
election results) and seems to still live there. English sources mention this town only in passing, but it is very likely that sources and coverage in a local language of Pakistan exist. The article obviously is uncited and should be rewritten, but AFD is not the place for that. A bad article is not a reason for deletion and notability is clearly given. The article should therefore stay (even if we have to reduce to a stub).
