- The author is from Hyderabad. Sorry to say but the book is not a self-published book. It is published by Authorspress India, one of the oldest and reputed book publishers from New Delhi, India. The critical reivews of his first novel, Theft of Nizam's Gold, were published in two of the leading, national Urdu Newspapers in India such as The Siasat Daily and the Munsif, oldest newspapers from India. Crritcal review in The Siasat Daily is [https://epaper.siasat.com/2170545/The-Siasat-Daily/26-05-2019#dual/16/2 here], and the Munsif Newspaper is [https://munsifdaily.in/epapers/archive.php?editor=0&type=0&lang=en_EN&popup=0&crossdomain=0&field_id=&relative_url=0&akey=key&fldr=2019%2FMay%2F17%2F&5cecd121b8c4c here]. A critical review is also published in [https://www.thehansindia.com/featured/sunday-hans/of-facts-mysteries-unrequited-love-538101 Hans India], and other other local newspapers such as [https://epaper.telanganatoday.com/Home/ShareArticle?OrgId=9db4df28&imageview=0# Telangana Today]. Almost all of the local newspapers from Hyderabad, India talked about his novel as NIZAM of Hyderabad is a popular subject in Hyderabad. But, unfortunately, most of these newspapers do not have any online presence. Moreover, only a previous AFD counts for G4. Survived deletion process already. Please, check history. Moreover, the novel is regarded is one of the finest contributions to the literature ever written on the Nizam os Hyderabad. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IQR (talk • contribs) 00:47, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
:{{u|IQR}} I have a hard time believing that a publisher with a gmail address is "a reputed book publisher". Also it is self published as per authorpress' own website and I quote: {{tq|Authors Press is an online self-publishing company}}[https://authorspress.com/about-us/ source].

- I am sorry, it is Authorspress India not Authors Press. The book is not a self published one. Check out [https://www.authorspressbooks.com/ Authorspress India] here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IQR (talk • contribs) 05:05, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
- Please, check it is not a self published book. The book is published by Authors Press India and Authors Press India is not a self-publishing platform. They are publishers. The book is available on their site as well. Please, check out [https://www.authorspressbooks.com/book_detail.php?preference=1488 here]. — Preceding unsigned comment added by IQR (talk • contribs) 08:44, 30 May 2020 (UTC)
:::Let me highlight another piece I said: {{tq|I have a hard time believing that a publisher with a gmail address is "a reputed book publisher".}} Also this might be worse than the other Authors Press, given it's pay for publication and doesn't readily identify as such.
