aside from the TNIE review, there is nothing else significant in terms of sources about the author or the book. Du Beat is a student paper and is pretty insignificant, Zee News doesn't even have a byline and the rest are utterly unreliable. Also worth noting this book was included along with a few sources in the AFD'd Harsh Agarwal, which was also found to be non-notable PRAXIDICAE💕 21:25, 19 May 2022 (UTC)

- Keep WP:NBOOKS says that book should be subject of two or more non-trivial published works appearing in sources that are independent of the book itself. Source 1 [1] is by Zee News and has a byline by Aparna Mudi (journalist byline). I think nominator missed seeing it. The review is completely about book and discusses the book. Some excerpt from the book is already present in the current draft. There is so much more too. Like Good women oriented thrillers are difficult to come by, and `Nazaqat` is one of the few that has the capability to make the mark. Source 2 Metro India [2] written by Sankalpita Singh (journalist byline) is a full non-trivial discussion on the book. Also there is Lucknow Tribue article by Lucknow Tribune Team along with a complete article in New Indian Express taken by Svetlana Lasrado. The book is completely notable as per Wikipedia guidelines.

- Keep Appears to be significant. Being covered by journalists or in house teams by a northern newspaper (Lucknow Tribune), two southern newspapers (TNIE and The Metro) and one national news organisation (Zeenews). DU Beat and Friedeye is definitely garbage and should be removed. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 16:46, 20 May 2022 (UTC)
