In 2021, Pakistan has jumped 16 places to reach 140th place. At the same time, during the tenure of PML-N party i.e. Nawaz Sharif, Shahid Khaqan Abbasi, this ranking was maintained till 117.

What is the position of India in terms of corruption?
In the Corruption Perceptions Index 2021, India continues to be ranked 85th with a score of 40 from last year. India’s position in this index has improved significantly since 2013.

Last year there was little effort to stop corruption
Transparency International has claimed in its report that most countries of the world have made little or no progress in reducing the level of corruption in the last decade. It has also been told in this report that the Kovid-19 global pandemic has worsened the situation. The systems of rights and checks and balances are increasingly undermined not only in countries with systemic corruption and weak institutions, but also in established democracies.

Pegasus spy also mentioned
The issues discussed in the report over the past year include the use of Pegasus software to spy on human rights activists, journalists and politicians around the world. The report said that many countries have used the global pandemic as an excuse to curtail fundamental freedoms and bypass checks and balances. It said that many countries in Western Europe, which scored the highest overall score, used the global pandemic as an excuse to relax anti-corruption efforts, and accountability and transparency measures were ignored or withdrawn.
