Journal reports according to Transparency International's corruption perception index, India scored 3.1 on a scale from zero to 10, where anything below five is bad news. Last year, India scored 3.3. The country's rank is better thanPakistan (No. 134) and Nepal, which at rank No 154 is perceived to be the most corrupt country in South Asia.
