India, China, Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh gained independence around the same time. Until 1960 all four countries had almost identical per capita income. Today China is an economic miracle with impressive human development indicators (HDI). Bangladesh is an economic pygmy but outshines even China on improvements in a few social parameters. India's record is mixed.Sri Lanka, meantime, is not only ahead of its South Asian neighbours by miles -it ranks 73 compared to India's 130 on the HD Index -it's better placed than even China (which is at 90). Pakistan, at 147, is the laggard in this pack
