Thakali Population

For full 2001 Census data by ethnicity, please click here.

Note
According Michael Vinding, in 1984, Thakali population was 8,576. The 1991 Census shows Thakali population at 13,731, and 2001 Census at 12,973.

• Nobody believes in a decline of Thakali population between 1991 and 2001.

Thakali population growth during 1984-2001 is consistent with Nepal's (both +50%) while growth during 1984-1991 (18% Nepal versus 60% Thakalis) and 1991-2001 (27% Nepal versus -6% Thakalis) are not.

We conclude that 2001 data is more accurate number.
