hold on tigers, the news story is put few things wrong about . Pakistan is better in

1. Life Expectancy,
2. HIV
3. less births in teenagers,
4. Proportion reaching grade 5 education

Births Per 1000 ages 15-19
India 68
Pakistan 46

HIV Prevalence rate (%) ages 15-49
India 0.3
Pakistan 0.1

Proportion reaching Grade 5 M/F
India 66/65
Pakistan 68/72

India is better in
Infant Mortality Rate,
Primany enrolment,
Secondary enrolment

**Infant Mortality Rate, **
India 53
Pakistan 62

**Primary enrolment M/F, **
India 114/109
Pakistan 101/83

Secondary enrolment M/F
India 59 /49
Pakistan 37/28

Its also worth noting that while enrolment in primary is higher in India, people reaching grade 5 are higher in Pakistan meaning the student enrolled tend to stay and complete 5 grades while in India they leave before that hence this result

May be daily times reported got carried away and included one indicator wrong.

though it could be improved in both countries Pakistan is not doing bad at all compared to India.

I think the reporter should be “carried away” - and dumped!
