Submission declined on 28 April 2024 by ToadetteEdit (talk).

This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:

in-depth (not just passing mentions about the subject)
reliable
secondary
independent of the subject

Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.

The primary page is Akoda. Robert McClenon (talk) 14:26, 27 April 2024 (UTC)

Akoda is a village in Joida taluk, Uttara Kannada district of Karnataka state in India, approximately 80 km from the city of Karwar. Farming is the main profession and there is a little bit of tourism due to a thick forest and the Kali River flowing nearby.^[1]

On Sunday, April 21, 2024, six family members drowned while trying to save a young girl in the Kali River near Akoda.^[2]^[3]
