Factoid -2

Haryana Vs Israel 


While travelling thru Haryana 2 weeks ago, it struck me that the general breast-beating by commentariat about the poor economic achievement of India may be out of sync.



Haryana GSDP Nominal : 2017-18 : ₹6,26,054 Cr ~ PPP $ 325.64 Billion ( PPP factor 3.641)
It places Haryana just AHEAD of Israel (GDP – PPP $317.1 Billion)  at 53rd place in the world. 

(Source : CIA Factbook )  

And there are at least 10 states of India ahead of Haryana.


The problem starts with Population : Haryana 28.1 M while Israel has a third at only 8M.
