This should be a renaming to Kurumbathur ; It can be seen that it includes all the information of Kurumbathur village in Malappuram district under the Kerala State Village Department, no source is available here that there is a village with the current name (Vettichira), Vettichira is a small town so some of this information is written here without source,, it fails WP:GEOLAND ~ Spworld2 (talk) 15:11, 20 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• Procedural keep: though I am incompetent to decide what the ultimate fate of this article is, it does not appear that this article is about a place that doesn't actually exist, a la WP:GNIS, nor a duplicate article of the same place under the same name. There are extant references to a place with this title [1][2], so at the very least a redirect should exist to the district page. Mach61 13:46, 10 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
