Why is it that when people cite a link to support their point, they can't even manage to read it properly?
Your link says 21.8 millions for Delhi metro (as your quote specifies it). A figure that is dated from 2011. At that time, according to your other link, Texas was somewhere around 25.6 millions.
So, Delhi metro population was about 85% of Texas. Given the comparative growths, this percentage has probably raised a bit during the last 5 years. Overall "almost" looks to me as a correct approximation.
- bogomipz 10y agoFrom the link: "According to the 2011 census of India, the population of Delhi is 16,753,235." There is no source for the figure of "Delhi metro area" so not really very scientific is it? 2011 was the last year for which there was census data.
- turar 10y agoThere's indeed a source for Delhi metro. It's in the Wikipedia article you cited.
