The result was no consensus‎ due to lack of participation. I note Ally's comment at the end which was somewhere between a keep and a merge, and a merge could still be done editorially if desired by editors. Daniel (talk) 11:39, 30 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Despite the lofty claims of notability in the lede, this is in fact just an above average sized industrial park that is not operating yet. The thing hasn't actually been built and the whole thing is just a promotional brochure entry right now that is, at best, overdue for TNT. BrigadierG (talk) 01:52, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• I believe the nominator's WP:BEFORE is not correct, there are numerous references including https://www.proquest.com/docview/2760770168/DF6905B092684D72PQ/1, https://www.proquest.com/docview/2803425383/DF6905B092684D72PQ/3, and https://www.proquest.com/docview/2761024527/DF6905B092684D72PQ/2 which say the subject is among the largest of its kind in Asia. Looking at the map shows it does indeed already exist. - Indefensible (talk) 03:04, 2 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

• Keep (or merge): There is a substantial 2015 Economic Times piece about the process by which this project was developed: "Does Karnataka's Narasapura industrial town offer lessons in land acquisition from farmers? Not quite". There was also coverage of workers' protest actions a few years ago at an iPhone assembly plant there; the location is incidental to that event, but does confirm that this Industrial Area is indeed operational. I did wonder whether a merge to Narsapur, Karnataka might be a useful alternative, as that article looks rather scant and might benefit from extending the details about the area's economy?
