Non-notable karateka. I found no mention of her at the WKF's website or records of her competing at the Asian Games. The Hindu article says she would be competing at the 2013 world championships, but the WKF has its world championships in even numbered years. It also says she qualified for the 2014 Asian Games, but there's no record of her competing there. The U.S. Open event is literally open to all so she wouldn't be representing India--you just fill out an entry form, there's no qualifying. Even if she did win, it wouldn't show notability and given all the dubious claims in this article I have my doubts. Given the 2012 WKF championships in Paris had nearly 1500 entries, simply competing there wouldn't show notability. The references given don't show notability and the claims contained in them seem to have lots of errors.Sandals1 (talk) 22:28, 1 May 2019 (UTC) Sandals1 (talk) 22:28, 1 May 2019 (UTC)

 * Delete I did a lot of searching and I can find no mention of her competing at any WKF world championship event. Nom is also correct about the U.S. Open and her not competing in the 2014 Asian Games.  Given the factual errors in the article, lack of evidence for meeting any martial arts notability criteria, and lack of significant reliable independent coverage, I see nothing that supports keeping this article.
