That is supposedly. However this article's content and Devdutt article s are very similar. And that is not just because they both are about Ashokasundari. The way these two articles is written is very similar. Also remember that a web portal sources its information from various sources even the news. Also you should know that 's article also appeared in Times of India. Should we use that as a source just because it appeared in a news website? Obviously not. All information must be verified. If you think that a folk tale about a god or a goddess can't appear in a book then think again.Vishnu maya is not mentioned in any scripture. His origins too are folk legends however the source I have used on his article clearly mentions he is a non Sanskritic deity. Also there is a folk tale about Shiva dancing nude to make Kali run away from a forest. However it is mentioned in a book that I read on Google. I am not at all against adding information about Ashokasundari to her article I actually in support of it. However the information should be first proved reliable and true without a doubt. Besides I think it is not such a big deal that the thing about the folk tale can't be added ,even if might be true (which is unlikely). Actually believe me it's not even that much important since the main reason behind creating Ashokasundari article was to prove that there did exist a daughter of Shiva and being able to prove just that is a big achievement in itself.
