Answer

Within the Jain community, the Shwetambar population is generally considered to be larger than the Digambar population.

Explanation

Jains are mainly divided into two major traditions:

• Shwetambar
• Digambar

In terms of community population, Shwetambars are usually understood to be numerically more, especially because large Jain communities in Gujarat, Rajasthan, and parts of Maharashtra are Shwetambar.

Digambars are also a major and very important Jain tradition, with strong presence in Karnataka, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Uttar Pradesh, Rajasthan, and other regions.

Takeaway

Shwetambars are generally more numerous, but both Digambar and Shwetambar traditions are deeply respected parts of Jain Dharma.
