According to economic indicators, an average Indian citizen’s GDP per capita is around $2,700, compared to approximately $1,600 for a Pakistani citizen. This means an average Indian is now about $1,100 richer per year by this measure, roughly 70% higher in per-capita income compared with Pakistan. While India’s economy has expanded rapidly through technology, manufacturing, exports and foreign investment, Pakistan has struggled with debt pressures, inflation, economic instability and slower growth. The widening economic gap between Pakistan and India has become increasingly evident. Pakistan also continues to face one of the world’s highest newborn mortality rates.
