Numbers[edit]

It says in the Tasks section that "*Pakistan Rangers: The 50,000 strong Rangers are headquartered in Lahore, Punjaband also 50,000 in Karachi, Sindh"

Are the Rangers really 100,000 strong? I am sure globalsecurity gives a lower figure of 25,000, with 24,000 for Mehran, 65,000 for Frontier Corps and 185,000 for the National Guard. Green Giant 06:22, 17 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the clarification Green Giant. I will update the number based on figures from a book.(Jalal0 (talk) 08:13, 31 December 2012 (UTC))[reply]
