World Bank Revises Pakistan Poverty Rate Down to 3%

$1995 billion is estimate for 2014-15 just like $300 billion for Pakistan. Actual for India is $1.7 trillion and Pakistan $260 billion in 2013-14.

And check world bank website, they updated Pak gdp PPP to $835 billion as of 2012 and not $600 billion.



Nothing has been debunked, a part from Indians living in delusions. Pakistan minimum anual wage $1450 vs India $689. Thats what matter to average person on street.



There is no comparision between poverty of India and Pakistan, most part of economy is not even documented. Indian jounalist got shocked when he visited village in terrosism hit Bajaur agency FATA. His words, villages in Bajaur are more developed then Indian Bimaru states villages.

Again wrong .. bother to properly go through data in the given link.

If you want quote figures from World Bank, post the link you are sourcing your data from.

P.S. Indian economy was $ 1,870.7 Billion in 2013..So unless Indian economy experienced negative growth, it can not be $1.7 trillion.

LOL ..Pakistan's per capita income is not even $1450.

How does minimum wage matter if you have a family of ten to support on a single minimum wage. It is per capita GDP which counts..where again Pakistan lags behind Indian by $1504 to $ 1307.

This report is compiled by GCD - a self proclaimed independent think tank not WB and moreover this report is hardly believable! @Chinese-Dragon What's your take on it?
