    I’m looking at world bank data that says 7.9? Wikipedia says 22, google search says 15, but none of them claim higher than India at 32. Not even estimates can give good results, but there is a distinct reduction in all sources from 121(!!!) from their 1996 famine.

      I think that the main factor in this is how depressingly cramped and polluted much of India is. I’m not Indian nor am I North Korean but North Korea is mostly rural while a lot of India is urban (with slums).
