World / Pakistan PM says India has a population of '1 billion and 300 crore', trolled

Islamabad: Netizens are having a field day trolling Imran Khan as the Pakistan Prime Minister made a goof-up saying India has a population of 1 billion 300 crore.

Imran Khan said, "New Zealand with a population of 40-50 lakh defeated India with a population of 1 billion and 300 crore in the World Test Championship final."

To set the record straight, India has a population of around 136 crore or 1.3 billion.

Imran Khan made the gaffe while addressing the public. The video of the Pakistan Prime Minister's latest faux pas has gone viral now.

In the past, Imran Khan was trolled when he said, "I know the history of Uzbekistan more than Uzbek people,” while addressing the Uzbekistan-Pakistan Business Forum on ‘Central and South Asia 2021: Regional Connectivity Challenges and Opportunities'.

In yet another incident in 2019, Imran Khan was trolled when he sat down even as other leaders were standing in the opening ceremony of the SCO Summit in Bishkek.
