Meanwhile Pakistan unskilled factory worker earn Rs40k PKR. Same worker in Noida Rs34k PKR. You look at GDP per capita figures and would think India will have higher minimum wage. Not to forget Pakistan population growth is double that of India and still manage to pay more minimum wage.

Meanwhile andhbakhst sanghis are blaming Pakistan for protests.
 
"India is amongst the top 10 countries with highest wealth inequality."I earn ₹11,500 per month and I'm not able to afford a simple bicycle in 6 months. While my bosses are buying new BMWs and other imported cars worth crores regularly"

The 34k PKR figure you're using is was the pre-protest number. The government raised the minimum wage to ₹13,690, which at current exchange rates is closer to PKR 45,000+, marginally above Pakistan's floor. The people protested and the government was forced to raise the minimum wages within 48hrs.

I'll give you the legitimate part of your argument - yes, India's GDP per capita is higher than Pakistan's, and our floor wages being in the same ballpark is a genuine policy failure. Growth isn't reaching the bottom. That's a fair criticism and Indians should be angry about it, which is exactly why thousands came out on the streets.

More like Rs41k PKR at current exchange rate. Looks like Noida workers will finally get Pakistan minimum wage after burning down city. BTW in few months Pakistan will again rise minimum wage with budget announcement. Rs40k PKR is for 2025.

I wouldn't call torching of a few vehicles and vandalising a factory "torching" the city. Sure the traffic was bad for a few days in the affected sectors.

From what I read online your figure seems frozen for now (25-26) at 37K Pkr.

When you adjust for actual cost of living, India's GDP per capita on PPP basis is $12,200 compared to Pakistan's $6,951. That means an Indian worker's rupee buys significantly more. A high number on paper means nothing when inflation has eroded real income.

All these PPP are BS numbers. 1$ buy more or less same in both countries.

I broke this news last couple of months ago. Even now IMF overestimate 2026-27 GDP as its unlikely to cross $4t with rupee crashing.
