Who?
I know.Those darned Chinese ....
When Britain became Great in 1880s as undisputed world power could it feed all it's people? Did it send all it's children to school? When did it abolish child labour? What was the living conditions of the Victorian working class?

Pros:
1. Pakistan has a large army (but despite this the writ of the central government does not run in all parts of the country)
2. Huge unchecked population growth - ultimately 300 million people cannot be ignored
3. Almost infinite capacity to cause trouble and nuisance around the world - so again cannot be ignored.
Cons: It does badly in all other criteria of power-
Science and technology - non existent other than nuclear weapons
Culture and soft power - non existent, no films, very little dance or art. Some literature and music but nothing major.
Manufacturing/world supply chain - zilch other than textiles which has been moving out to Bangladesh recently due to erratic power supply and terrorism..otherwise cannot manufacture a sharp safety pin and is not part of the world supply chain.
If it wasn't for factor #3 in Pros., the world would have left Pakistan alone to rot in the mess of its own making.
Historically speaking Pakistan was way ahead than India in terms of HDI , GDP per capita etc etc. It is only in last 10 years India got ahead by slightest of margins.
The Economy has bounced back due to terrorism being at an all time low. CPEC will help the economy.
Cultural Power
In recent years after the end of dictatorship in Pakistan, She is getting a lot of attention from third world and alliances. Latest developments shows Pakistan is getting substantial share in world politics even with long standing rivals excluding India. UN has long ago removed the LOC from disputed territory list but constant push from Pakistan to draw attention towards the so called truce line to world audience has let Obama quoting that the dispute is still there and both countries to work towards it. With long struggling internal social issues, Pakistan is determined to increase its military might and nuclear arsenal by spending almost 40% of it's budget on military due to constant fear from the Indian side.
Recent years and days showed us huge investment, improving relations with neighbors except India, defence tie ups. There is no doubt that Pakistan internal agencies are jeopardizing improving ties between the two enemies which is evident or perhaps non state elements.
The question here arises is that Pakistan emerging has power in South Asia and neighboring regions to challenge India which has long enjoyed the attention except few countries.

Slightest - huh ?
And what about economic development in India dear ?
Sorry,its nowhere near India.
thats stupid. tell us who is the power in western europe?
1. IMF 2014 gdp ppp
India $5855
Pakistan $ 4736
World bank 2014 gdp nominal
India $ 1610
Pakistan $1410
World happiness report 2015 (quality of life and other indicators)
2. Pakistan will develop the most in next 5 years as terrorism is about to go and all the tribal belt is under Pakistan army control. A country which wasnt much behind during its worst security period , is pretty much going to give India a tough time when next 5 are going to be terror free.
3. Really?Bollywoods current music scene is dominated by Pakistani singers

India is the emerging power in South Asia and Pakistan is an emerging counter power.
