Lack of notability. Entire article is a reproduction of an Indian statute Nightkey (talk) 03:33, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. As per above -- Anshuk (talk) 09:41, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete copyvio Doc Strange (talk) 13:12, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete Probably not a copy vio as public records and the like don't carry copyright protection. Certainly not an encyclopedia article, no assertion of notability. Xymmax (talk) 14:26, 8 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete without prejudice to writing a real article about the act. I haven't a clue about the copyright status of Indian statutes; a US statute is fair game, though.  But still, it's entirely a source text.  It belongs at Wikisource if it belongs anywhere. - Smerdis of Tlön (talk) 15:15, 8 February 2008 (UTC)

 * Delete. Absolutely non-notable law; not every statute is per se notable. Possibly, this is a POV fork, to make a point that the said University may be doing somethinbg of which the creator does not approve. Bearian&#39;sBooties (talk) 02:45, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Delete. Probably worth a mention in our article on the University of Hyderabad but not as a standalone article. It certainly has no value as a copy. Capitalistroadster (talk) 23:30, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
