The proposed model extends some recent discrete Lindley distributions like the discrete Lindley of Bakouch et al. (2014), the two-parameter discrete Lindley of Hussain et al. (2016).The new distribution has many interesting properties which make it superior to many other discrete distributions, particularly in analyzing over dispersed count data. Practical implications and future directions are also discussed at the conclusion of the study UR - http://172.23.153.220/th.pdf ER -
