Do PATHAN men treat their ladies better than PUNJABI men???

In my initial post on looking at stats I had noted that numbers have to be looked on a per capita basis and not plain numbers to factor in the huge population diffeences.

here are the population numbers from 1998
population of different provinces was 73621290 (Punjab) 17743645 (NWFP), 30439893 (Sindh) and6565858 (baluchistan)

now the numbers that you provided when looked on a per capita basis show that Punjab had the highest rates folowed by NWFP, then sindh and then Baluchistan
Punjab 0.002049678836%
NWFP 0.000856644731%
Sindh 0.000558477653%
Baluchistan 0.000502599965%

anyways, just wanted to do an analysis on a per capita basis to have a cleaer picture. The truth however is that one such cases is oen too many. shameful stats indeed.

This sad truth is very global in nature though. It might be different bassed on authority of law and education but its there, neverthless ..

in USA, the rate in 2001 was 0.0000044 % .. Much lower than any part of Pakistan but still there

here is a pretty shocking report
