No secondary sources. I can't independently verify any of the claims in the article or establish notability. I can't find any external sources with any information about the newspaper at all, to be honest. Iago Qnsi (talk) 03:58, 4 February 2018 (UTC)
 * Minor note: One claim in the article is that they're the highest ranked Indian-American newspaper on Alexa. I don't know what papers they're comparing to, but their rank isn't terribly high (168,774 global, 51,268 US, 25,834 India). I imagine a lot more Indian-Americans simply read the Times of India, which has a full-fledged US section, and is ranked 241 on Alexa (12 in India, 815 in US). - Iago Qnsi (talk) 04:02, 4 February 2018 (UTC)

 * Delete -- does not meet WP:NWEB / WP:NCORP & significant RS coverage not found. The article is entirely self-cited including to the "India West online Media Kit" (!). Wikipedia is not a replacement for a company web site or a free means of promotion. K.e.coffman (talk) 02:11, 7 February 2018 (UTC)
