Pakistan in bottom 10 on Global Innovation Index - thenews.com.pk

Pakistan rank :134; India rank:81.

India over 50 places ahead of Pak.

In competitive index

Pakistan slips in WEF competitiveness rankings - The Express Tribune

Pakistan rank: 126; India rank:55

No wonder India's forex reserves are $350 billion and Pakistan's only $20 billion (a large part of which is due to IMF and US handouts).

 

[Roybot]

Its stupid to compare India and Pakistan.

 

[Cherokee]

India's Position in both innovation and competitiveness is extremely shameful . Instead of smirking at our neighbor's position we should work towards making ourselves better .

 

[punit]

Have you doctored the title ?

Is there a comparison ?

 

[HariPrasad]

It is very sad that we are at 81th rank. We must be in top 10. I think we have climbed up 15 position in global competitive index. This should continue for nex to year to enable us to be in top 10 place.

I can anticipate two types of trolls.

Type 1 : Make fun of the low value for pakistan
Type 2 : Sound as if Indians are too elite to be compared to pakistan and making fun of pakistan in the process.

Bottomline : For an economy which takes pride in being the 3rd largest? economy in the world by PPP and top 10 in nominal index, it's utter shame that it languishing at values hovering around 80s.

 

[Kashmiri Pandit]

We should compare ourselves with China , Japan , USA , UK , Russia etc .

Sorry you can't compare peanuts to walnuts .

Most of the World's Poorest People Live in India
India Is Home to More Poor People Than Anywhere Else on Earth

Anadolu Agency—Getty ImagesSlum dwellers lead their life in poverty and unhealthy conditions in New Delhi, India on March 10, 2014.
"We don't have to be proud of what we've done," one minister says
report by the U.N.

India only managed to reduce its poverty rate (the ratio of the number of people who fall below the poverty line and a country’s total population) from 49.4% in 1994 to 42% in 2005 and 32.7% in 2010. By contrast, regional rival China brought it down from 60% in 1990 to an impressive 16% in 2005 and just 12% in 2010.

India also accounted for the highest number of under-five deaths in the world in 2012, with 1.4 million children not reaching their fifth birthday.

“We don’t have to be proud of what we’ve done,” admitted minority affairs minister Najma Heptulla to the Times Of India on Wednesday. “Poverty is the biggest challenge.”
