:Keep: References are from reliable sources. Mention of the term in research paper and reference to historic usage prove notability. BengaliHindu (talk) 16:08, 23 February 2015 (UTC)

::Comment The source of web.mit.edu mentions the word only a single time along with some other rural slurs in its 251 pages article. The other two sources Rnews24.com and the BangladeshPress.com are not reliable at all. The word is just a rural slur, it doesn't have significant coverage which can warrant its own article or a redirect to other page. - Rahat (Message) 17:56, 24 February 2015 (UTC)

:::{{yo|Ctg4Rahat}} Good explanation, I have redacted my vote. Lets hope for delete. OccultZone (TalkContributionsLog) 04:33, 25 February 2015 (UTC)

  • Delete – per WP:NOTDICT. Even if they were reliable, the sources are nothing more than examples of usage, such as you might find in a dictionary. – Margin1522 (talk) 10:08, 25 February 2015 (UTC)|
  • Delete - Wikipedia is not a dictionary. I don't think the current sources demonstrate notability, and there's only three of them. If I were to see more sources, I might be inclined to change my opinion. — kikichugirl oh hello! 03:38, 2 March 2015 (UTC)
