The US has released a list of countries according to happiness. The list called Happiness Report has a Happiness Index of 156 nations around the world. Sadly India’s rank has fallen 7 places as compared to last year.

Last year, India was ranked on 133 in the list and now it has fallen to 140. Note that, this is the largest drop in the past decade.

Ironically none of the major economically progressive countries in the world have made it to the top 10.

Finland has once again managed to retain its position as the happiest country which gives us an idea that the economy clearly has nothing to do with happiness. You can check the top 10 and bottom 10 countries below:

Being citizens of India, this happiness index is alarming. If we think of the major reasons, unemployment and poverty are making Indians unhappy. The difference between rich and poor is increasing at a higher rate.
