Comment: Draft is very short (a stub). It needs expansion and also addition of references showing significant coverage about Brohi in reliable independent secondary sources (see also WP:AUTHOR for criteria for writers, poets, etc). Two references is insufficient. Paul W (talk) 15:55, 22 July 2025 (UTC)
