I believe IMF data (as shown on Wiki, sourced) suggests that the per day $1 range is greater in India. However its a silly argument, both nations are dirt poor on a per capita basis.
WB 2006 data. India’s is 31%, Pak 17%. (For $2/day its 80/70…both sad)
BBC supports fact that 1/3 of Indians live on $1/day
Please dont twist stats, but numerical evidence in this case is overwhelming. Even Encyclopedia Brittanica states that absolute poverty in India is greater then the rest of South Asia as a % and in sheer numbers.
