Pakistan provisional census results out, population 207.7m

[defence_analyst]

Hahahaha..... I think census people doesn't see 10 million Afghanis, qabailis, Talbans and Na Maloom Afraads

17 million is nothing but a joke.

Its not a joke, 30m or even 25m sounded like a joke. Its amazing how MQM is crying about census when 30m will mean MQM shouldn't win even 30% of seats in Karachi let alone majority. As all these people would have come from somewhere else from Pakistan.

I would add atleast 10 million more people to this "final" figure. Reason obviously being unregistered people and the afghan refugees .Plus its a very common practice that people lie about the number of kids that they have because they're afraid the government will take more taxes from them lol.

Afghan refugees are already counted and all of unregistered as well. There is no tax on number of kids,

Thats what i want to know whats their population. So if we take approx numbers our population will b around 200m excluding those bengalis , aghans and aliens.

Maybe final report will give final numbers on afghans, bengalis etc. Right now Pakistan is setting up centres to register every afghan in Pakistan.

What ever you said doesn't make sense, 30m always sounded like BS and even 25m. Some lead us to believe FATA and KP was being deserted and every pathan moved to Karachi because "operations". Karachi population still increased by quite a bit since 1998, 9 vs 17 is huge increase.

 

[Mr.Cringeworth]

SO pakistan is now in 20 crore league. Good.

it's not a good thing for country with not much resources to feed all of the population.

 

[Khan_21]

GDP $3,050,000,000 ÷ Population 207,774,520M = $1467.93 GDP Nominal per capita..... this is without GB, AKJ population.

Its more than $1600 . Lets wait when we have a new base year . Our true our capita is somewhere around $2200-2500 .

 

[fatman17]

Figure include afghans outside refugee camps and other illegals like Bengalis etc

2017 vs 1998
Punjab: 52.95% vs 55.62%= -2.67%
Sindh: 23.05% vs 22.99%= +0.06%
KP: 14.69% vs 13.40%= +1.29%
Balochistan: 5.94% vs 4.95%= +1.01%
FATA: 2.40% vs 2.39%= + 0.01%
Islamabad 0.96% vs 0.60%= +0.36%

annual growth 2.4% still too high.
ICT 4.91% what's going on

 

[defence_analyst]

I would say if afghanis, etc are not counted then population is 205m. Not far off official estimate of 200m.

 

[fatman17]

karachi 17m lahore 12

Karachi figure misleading.

 

[defence_analyst]

annual growth 2.4% still too high.
ICT 4.91% what's going on

Migration to ICT from outside like in all of Pakistan cities.

Actually, its quite the opposite, more kids lead to fewer taxes you have to pay.

 

[Musafir117]

Karachi figure misleading.

I doubt whole figures the governments of each provinces full of corrupt and could managed the figures as they want.
But good thing is that's it's done and done after a very long time.

There were more people on my cousins aqiqa than this "laili" a few weeks ago

Pakistanis should, now, focus on developing the country. We have enough man power now the need is to educate them, provide them world class facilities.

 

[Zarvan]

Karachi figure misleading.

It's not the misleading figures were given by parties like MQM and PPP to grab more money

By the way population which channels are telling doesn't include population of Azad Kashmir and Gilgit Baltistan. Counting them in Pakistan which I think they should as they can live and do job any where in Pakistan population is around 21 Crore 50 Lakh.

Also focus on population control 200 million are just way too many you just cant have indefinite growth on Pakistan which has a finite area

Karachi 17m isn't official figure, could be 18-19m but not much higher.
