National engineering challenge

Although it sounds notable from the first sentence "...in 150 cities" this is in fact just a national academic competition like hundreds that happen all over the world all the time. Article - which also appears promotional for the Gate Academy - was mostly written by a COI editor and all the references are primary. There's not a lot out there in terms of references and many are to this which appears to be a different competition with the same name. Black Kite (talk) 23:47, 12 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Delete Lacks the independent coverage needed for WP:GNG. I did find articles like this which read like press release material. It's possible more is out there waiting to be found. There are other 'challenges' with that same name besides this one from India. Gab4gab (talk) 23:15, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Delete - 150 cities? No independent evidence exists. For a scientific endeavor, that is sketchy. Bearian (talk) 13:34, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
