Delete. Original research, not clearly notable. 'Visakha Museum, Visakhapatnam, India is a "source" but I don't know if a museum can be called a source Ingadres (talk) 13:51, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I can't see this being of any interest outside the family itself. I'm not sure about the 2nd class knighthood. There are two sorts of knights in the UK - knights bachelor and knights of a chivalric order. The first are styled as (example) Sir Jonas Dunderfoot, and the others are styled as Sir Stewartby Phillygrass, KK (where he is a Knight of the Order of the Kitchen - lower than the Order of the Bath in precedence and totally fictional). Both sorts are knights and I've never heard of a second class called that. There are precedence matters between the various orders, but those do not come into the title. Apart from that, I'm not sure about "The magistrate legacy was hereditary hence the heirs were all ruling prince of the zamindari estate." I can't see why a hereditary magistrate should necessarily be a prince. The jagirdar was a grant of land not exceeding the lifetime of the holder, and a zamindar might be in one or two cases referred to by a princely title, but he was in reality a taxgatherer who collected from the peasants and paid tax to the Empire administration. All in all, this looks like a vanity piece on behalf of the current 'Nawab', who is, of course, no longer even a taxgatherer, the zamindar title and position having been abolished across most if not all of India. The present nawab appears to be somewhat of what my mother used to call a 'permanent student', but if he can afford it, I don't blame him. Peridon (talk) 18:01, 14 February 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete - several different Google searches reveal nothing but cruft, blogs, and vanity pages, or nothing at all, or nothing otherwise verifiable. Bearian (talk) 18:23, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
