[edit] Population of Charikar

The version [1] states that there are 153,500 inhabitans in Charicar in 2006.

This must be an error.

In the statistic from Afghanistan states [2] that there are an est. of 48,100 in urban areas in Parwan.

German wiki tells that there where a population of 34,900 in Charikar in 2003. I've removed the population number from the article. Hogne (talk) 08:35, 7 December 2007 (UTC)

According to AIMS, the population of Charikar District is 133,618, see here. Since Charikar is a big city, we can assume most of that number is from Charikar and that Charikar's population is around 130,000. TheNewPianist (talk) 00:58, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
I'm not that sure. From the statistic above there are only 48,200 in urban areas in Parwan, and from the picture at google map Charikar doesn't look like a big city at all. Hogne (talk) 10:28, 19 December 2007 (UTC)
