Population Error?
[edit]The population figures of 60,100 for 2005 census and 65,387 for 2012 estimate, added on 14 May 2014 look like the figures for the whole district rather than just for this town. The previous values given on earlier versions of 4981 in 2005 and estimate of 5479 for 2012 look far more credible. Also the page of Districts of Bhutan give these larger figures for the whole district. Most Bhutanese towns seem to have a population of a few thousand, rather than 10s of thousands. Since I have no other source to validate this, I have not changed it at this time. Does anybody else have another source or any thoughts? If nobody comments in the next few weeks I will reverse this edit to the previous values. MWchat (talk) 21:42, 22 September 2017 (UTC)
