A brave Aussie couple on a long road trip. They were in Thailand 8 months before this video. Anyway, their first impression of the Pakistani roads after crossing from India via Wagah shows they are pretty impressed.

 
Quality of Life increase is so exponential when the border is crossed.

Obviously Pakistan is doing something right.

Uh huh.....

HDI:

Multi-dimensional poverty:

Infant mortality (Pak behind by 15 years now):

Energy consumption per capita:

Very "exponential"
 

Only one argument is enough to neutralize your post.. and that is regarding toilets.

Congrats to the Aussie couple who had the balls to this overland trip I myself envy these folks who this thing I dream one day of doing this type of trip in not so distant future since I was in HS I was always dreamt of doing a road trip to Pakistan and Asia by car a lot of British Pakistanis do this every year but they its the same bloody route Anatolia(Turkey) Iran mine is to go via Russia,Central Asis and China tho my main plan is a road trip to Japan so far here were my route plans I made a year back ideally my dream car for content creation purposes and promotion is a old NYC taxi cab model called the Checker Marathon its quite possible to do it a Czech dude drove a rickety Trabant to Pakistan a year ago

Pakistan sanitation is a serious issue as evidenced by its infant mortality rate....if you know what the leading cause is in developing world for death within 1st year.

Swaach bharat program now has reached about 90% in India and independent vetted and praised by UNICEF...and will reach 100% fairly soon. Then what "neutralising" will you have?

Well my neutralizing post had a hidden second function, which says, that the public of India prefer excreting in public rather than using toilets. This is a huge socialistic problem that will take a generation to fix.

Secondly, Our sanitation is much better than India's.. we dont have turd farms anywhere unlike India. Your turd farms are measured in Muraba's (1 muraba = 25 acres)

Keep telling yourself whatever. UNICEF surveys say different. As have previous such surveys in quick amount of time in many developing countries.

If Pakistan is so much better...even "exponentially" so, it wouldn't be a full 15 years behind India in infant mortality.

Poor sanitation is leading cause of mortality rate of children (esp babies) in developing world:

You all can celebrate better roads in some zone (but you wont like how India scores on logistics performance index compared to you I suppose)....but it is clear what the actual macro evidence increasingly presents....so why use words like "exponential"?

No offence but swaach bharat is a failure.
It was a good effort by your pm but most indians were too lazy to adapt to it.
 
One thing Hindustanis don't want to admit that road infrastructure of Pakistan is much better than Hindustan. But Hindustan is doing much much better than Pakistan in Railways and Pakistan Railways need to do a lot to catch Indian Railways. Our roads are better, NHA is doing satisfactory job in expanding and maintaining road network but we should know start focusing on Railway network it's very critical and strategic aspect which we kept neglecting for 7 decades.

Pakistan lags miles behind India in all sort of infrastructures. India ranks much better than Pakistan in index of quality of roads as well. Individual cases like this Aussie case don't prove anything.

Outside the messed places like Delhi, Northern India's small cities are much cleaner with better roads & planning. South India is a step ahead. Even northeast is.

Delhi is sh!tiest city I've ever visited. Worse than my knowledge. I'm wondering why to make it the capital when you have much better places like Chandigarh, Mumbai and Bangalore.

No, besides our metro systems, Indian railways for passenger class are hell. New better trains are being introduced but will take time.
Indian railways network is big, not good.

Irony this couple was on a random road in India but in controlled access lanes in Pakistan.

Ever see how are the roads built by Indian NHA.

India & Pakistan don't even have same methods of calculating population & stats, better leave.
As soon as program started & surveys were released, less than 2% of Indians were found without them.

Who doesn't love empty roads.

UNICEF disagrees. The usage of constructed toilets is 95% and more than 90% is the coverage. Failure?
I don't think so. Take this as an example on how to implement it, it'll indirectly help to eradicate polio without all these vaccine and stuff, because polio spreads through fecal-oral route.

Other than Hindustani self praising, no third person who have been on roads of Pakistan and Hindustan (even Hindustanis who visited Pakistan) call Hindustani roads better than Pakistan.

Railways is backbone of transportation in Hindustan while in Pakistan it's roads. Hindustani railways is much much better than Pakistan in both capacity and quality, I don't have inflated ego not to admit that while road transportation is much better in Pakistan which is difficult for Hindustanis to swallow.

Genius, one vehicle accompanying for security reasons doesn't mean that we have built dedicated roads for foreigners nor we empty roads for them. It's same road used by everyone, in fact the road along canal is main artery of Lahore which starts from Wahga border go across Lahore to other corner of Lahore.
