Proof of Usefulness Score
Category Standard

Namasthe Telangana is a highly established regional newspaper with significant real-world utility and a massive audience base in the Telangana region (India). While the project entity itself is robust, verifiable, and operates at a scale larger than the calibration benchmark, the submission quality was exceptionally poor (vague claims, lack of specific metrics). The score reflects the verifiable success and legacy of the brand (ntnews.com) rather than the low-effort submission data.
