India was ranked even below Pakistan, Nepal, China, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. In Asia, India is only better off than Afghanistan that was placed at 137th position

India was placed at the 126th position out of 137 countries in the World Happiness Report released on Monday by the United Nations Sustainable Development Solutions Network.

India was ranked even below Pakistan, Nepal, China, Bangladesh, and Sri Lanka. In Asia, India is only better off than Afghanistan which was placed at 137th position.
War-struck Ukraine also figured above India at 92 and Russia was positioned at 72.

According to the World Happiness Report, Finland is the happiest country in the world. It is the sixth consecutive win for Finland.

The report measures happiness based on GDP per capita, social support, healthy life expectancy, freedom, generosity, and low corruption. The annual report was released on March 20, which is celebrated as International Day of Happiness. The report is based on global survey data from people in 137 countries.


Country rankings this year are based on life evaluations in 2020, 2021, and 2022, so all of the observations are drawn from years of high infection and deaths from Covid-19, the report said.



"2022 was a year of crises, including the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, the war in Ukraine, worldwide inflation, and a range of local and global climate emergencies. We thus have more evidence about how life evaluations, trust, and social connections together influence the ability of nations, and of the world as a whole, to adapt in the face of crisis. Our main analysis relates to happiness as measured by life evaluations and emotions, how they have evolved in crisis situations, and how lives have been better where trust, benevolence, and supportive social connections have continued to thrive," the report said.

Nordic countries remained on top, repeating the previous year's pattern. Denmark was ranked number 2 and Iceland was positioned at number 3.

"Finland remains in the top position, for the sixth year in a row. Lithuania is the only new country in the top twenty, up more than 30 places since 2017. War-torn Afghanistan and Lebanon remain the two unhappiest countries in the survey, with average life evaluations more than five points lower (on a scale running from 0 to 10) than in the ten happiest countries. This year’s report uses three measures to study the inequality of happiness. The first is the happiness gap between the top and the bottom halves of the population. This gap is small in countries where almost everyone is very unhappy, and in the top countries where almost no one is unhappy, " the report said.


 
Born to be miserable term aptly applies to these creatures.
This forum also represents Indian mentality in its element.
We have several Nationalities on this forums but one finds mostly It's Indians who are always bad mouthing others. While the same are desparate to open threads every time they put a nut on a bolt.
These Indians may cover their slums with sheets to hide their shame and underbelly but they can't disguise their shamless nature.

wouldnt gulf and saudi be happiest nations they got oil money.
 
I dont know whether to believe this report considering the sitiuation of this country right now.
 
They forgot to interview billions of cow citizens, else India would be rank 1.
 
Pakistan is filled with good for nothing maskharas everywhere so probably high on happiness and yet injurious to the country!
 
Indians knew the earlier happiness indexes where Pakistanis are happier than Indians and knowing Paks are happier the hatred for the report and indices are making them angrier and less happy.

Anyways the hatred level of Indians against Paks is huge, one reason for them less happy.

India GDP per capita is higher than Pak.( this doesn't mean BPL people are getting the GDP per capita as this is an average.)

Social support in Pakistan is much higher than India.

Generosity indices in Pak is better than India.

Corruption index is better in India.

It might be true vice-versa too.

Paksiatni’s are happier and Indians are unhappier after seeing the results.

Anyways the hatred level of Indians against Paks is huge, one reason for them less happy.
Paksiatnis think that they are the centre of the universe and everyth8ng happens in the universe because of them. It may not be so.

There is another thread that says a different story.

Thread 'China tops in happiness index'

As per this India is close to top.

Not exactly. rather its vice versa, Indians have huge sense of entitlement, they want everyone to accept how superior they are, just look at the social media comments.

40% of NASA are Indians, Fake news.

35% of Indians are in Microsoft, again fake news.

Indians are running the IT industry of the world. Again lopsided news. IT industry yearly worth is 4 trillion USD.

Pakistan doesn't harbors these delusions of grandeur, maybe some Generals do.
