India ranks 76 in Corruption Perception Index

The Hindu  

The Berlin-based corruption watchdog Transparency International has put India at rank 76 out of 168 countries in its latest Corruption Perception Index. The country’s 2015 corruption perception score remains the same as last year’s – 38/100 – showing lack of improvement. Major scandals such as the one in Brazil’s state oil giant Petrobras involving massive kick-backs have resulted in the country's rankings plunging sharply this year. Graft allegations surrounding Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak has also been cited as an instance of why that country scored poorly at 50 over its last year’s score of 52.
