How India Second
by Kailash upadhyay on Aug 30, 2007 09:30 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

India will be third as china has 3 arms per 100 and china population is higher then India , as per calcualtion china will be second even though they have 3 per 100. This article is mislead reader , this is worst example of media , now a days all media present wrong picture mainly TV news and Internet.

As of now, I think the population of China is not excess compared to India. Hence, 4 No. per 100 and 3 Nos. per 100 ratio is correct and obviously China should come next to India. I hope you understand.

LETS DO SOME MATHS

Chinas' population on Aug. 29th, 2007: 1,323,146,723, so total no. of arms China has 39694401.7 (3 arms per 100)


Indian population as of Aug. 29th, 2007: 1,132,799,287... then no. of firearms in India would be 45311971.5 (4 arms per 100)!!

I agree with you Kailash that media has gone very irresponsible these days but lets do some maths before criticizing everyone...
