Population of West Pakistan at the time of partition was just over 3 crores and now it is 23 crore (Almost eight times increase). In comparison the Kalash have multiplied only four time.
A negative correlation implies a negative relationship between social pressure for conversation (X) and natural growth rate(Y) as X increases, Y decreases.
Such a poor explanation knowing well about conversion cases in three Kalash valleys. He has done nothing to address Kalash community plight even telling lies about the ground realities.
