not an Indian myths but rather a general misconception about Pakistan is it being a small country when in reality Pakistan has quite a good size for a country crossing the 3 lakhs sq mi mark but unfortunately i have seen even many Pakistanis also say with regards to the India-Pakistan land size is that India is ten times or 6 times the sizes of Pakistan which is not true
the size of India is 1.2 million sq miles + Indian-administered Kashmir 38,830 sq miles = 1.2 38,830 sq miles or
32 million,569sq km which is 32 lakhs 830 sq mi
Pakistan 307,374 sq miles + Pakistani-administered Kashmir 32,323 sq miles = 3,39697 sq miles or 8,79811 sq km which is 8 lakhs 79,811 sq km
so
1.2 38,830/ 3,39697 = 3.6 something
so India is 3.6 times larger then Pakistan & not 10 times or 6 times
