oops.
Consumption just touched 1000 KWH during peak summer this year.those data are from 2006....??
this is 2012...
View attachment 274282
dark areas are present more in central india... those less inhabited areas... jus like balochistan and tibet in china.... even USA has them in lot...
India's percapita electricity consumption is 744kwh wheras pakistans is 452kwh...

This shoddy analyses is a ''new and innovative'' pakistani way of denying hard cold statistics and rankings on electricity generation, economy, hunger index, poverty etc etc. Take a few ten year old pictures, cut them where convenient, offer explanations for pakistani side and talk trash about others.
Its amusing the childish antics.
wait till he posts pics of rickshaws and chaiwalas...!!!!! ... i have seen a strange trait among pakistani posters here... they tend to compare development on the basis of pics and youtube videos... some fool days ago compared nuclear blast and yield on basis of youtube video... some compare Air drag on basis of air show pictures.... someone tell these fools to open international databooks and compare!!!!
Do explain how OP is frustrated, its you who is hell bent to prove him wrong thus the frustration, anyways have a great day, can't wait to read more Pakistan related posts from you.If you are worried about frustration levels, worry about OP.

In the entire South Asia Balochistan has the lowest density. Have a look at the size of Balochistan yet the total population is less then many South Asian cities at 13 million. Central India is far more densely populated. Balochistan is high altitude desert plateaux with hot summers and freezing ice and snow in winter. Madya Pradesh in Central India is nearly 72 million people with density of 236 Km2 compared to 13 million and 19 Km2. in 1998 and even it has doubled since it will be less then 40 Km2.

Question for you. How do you calculate electrification in your country ? Based on area or population ?Do explain how OP is frustrated, its you who is hell bent to prove him wrong thus the frustration, anyways have a great day, can't wait to read more Pakistan related posts from you.
Opps on the part that a "Think Tank Consultant" - Thinks Shining India is in reference to - Lumens per sqm in India.What is the ooops for? That map almost reflects the same as I provided. Compare them before you give off oops.
And your source is Bing who rely on others for data. I used US NOAA which being US agency have their own satellite assets. Please refer to US NOAA.

By OP's contention: China must be dirt poor.From a paper with some NOAA authors (lets ignore for now that this is all from 2007 and thus the data has changed somewhat):

There are several shortcomings for nighttime lights in poverty estimation that should be acknowledged. The detection of lighting is a sure indicator of the presence of an electric power grid. However, poverty is a multifaceted phenomenon for which access to electricity is only one aspect. In areas where no lighting is detected there is no basis to discriminate variations in poverty levels without bring in additional data. For instance, there are many rural areas in wealthy countries where lighting is too dim to be detected by the OLS. In these cases poverty rates may be overestimated. Another issue is that there are cultural preferences for lighting and technological differences in lighting between different countries that would need to be addressed to improve the accuracy of poverty estimates derived based on nighttime lights.
Tibet 1.6people/km^2.... Xinjiang 13.75people/km^2@Atanz
The IEA figures you are quoting seem some what off from the recent ones. Here is more recent:
From: IEA - Energy access database
World bank numbers are also quite different, Pakistan is at 94% here:
Access to electricity (% of population) | Data | Table
So it depends on the source.
But basing poverty rates on area electrification visible from Space is a very poor estimate.
I doubt any Chinese member would accept that the NOAA chart at NOAA/NGDC - Earth Observation Group - Defense Meteorological Satellite Program, Boulder
represents the actual poverty level in China.
@TaiShang @Dungeness @Chinese-Dragon @Chinese Bamboo @ChineseTiger1986
For one look at the supposed poverty rates in parts of Norway (which I presume are relatively unlit). You telling me that makes sense at all?
By OP's contention: China must be dirt poor.
Tibet,access to electricity,100% in village,thank you.
Hence why I invited some chinese members to this thread already.
But but....NOAA estimates that it is 75%+ poverty. Can you explain to the OP why thats wrong plz?
Apparently most of China is a lot poorer than Pakistan as well.
