Jainism now has millions of followers in India and worldwide.
Jainism is considered a major religion but it is one of the smaller major world religions. In different parts of India and around the world, there are many Jain communities. There are 10 to 15 million followers in India but the influence of Jainism in that country is significantly greater than the numbers suggest. In the United Kingdom, Canada, United States and East Africa (Tanzania, Kenya and Uganda) there are also substantial Jain communities.
