NPOV[edit]

It's kinda hard to see this as NPOV when it contains phrases like "He was a socialistic radical thinker and pioneer social reformer at a time when one could not even think of freedom" and "Lothoo broke the main gate by hitting it with his head." I'm removing the most questionable bits. --Nucleusboy 01:59, 15 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

According to the article:

He got into an argument with Kunwar, and "without showing any anger" (I wonder who was watching) murdered him. People paid him protection money. He looted towns. He robbed a rich caravan of the Seths, who had been his allies.

If this is what his supporters say, then let the POV stand. Maproom (talk) 22:49, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I have stubbed the article, to which LRBurdak was a major contributor. That person was known for copyright violations on a massive scale and for using unreliable, pov-y sources. In this instance, the sole source appeared to be a self-published hagiography by Ranwa, the tone was all wrong and it was factually dubious even in the most basic things, eg: claiming that Nitharwal fought against the British Raj when in fact the British Raj did not even exist until after the 1857 rebellion.

Unfortunately, I am struggling to find any alternate sources and that raises the issue of whether or not the guy is actually notable. - Sitush (talk) 15:21, 29 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
