The index measures the perceived levels of public sector corruption, with Denmark, Finland, New Zealand, and Norway leading the list.<\/p><p><strong>Key Points<\/strong>:<\/p><ol><li>The CPI uses a scale of 0 to 100, where 0 indicates high corruption and 100 signifies very clean. India\u2019s score for 2023 was 39, a slight decrease from 40 in 2022.<\/li><li>In the Asian region, Singapore topped the list with a score of 83, ranking fifth overall.<\/li><li>The report highlighted concerns about the narrowing of civic space in India, particularly with the passage of a telecommunications bill that could potentially threaten fundamental rights.<\/li><li>Western Europe and the European Union remained the top-scoring regions, despite a drop in their average score to 65 due to weakening checks and balances and eroding political integrity.<\/li><li>In South Asia, Pakistan (rank 133) and Sri Lanka (rank 115) are dealing with political instability due to their respective debt burdens. However, strong judicial oversight in both countries is helping to keep the government in check.<\/li><li>China (rank 76) has been in the news for its aggressive anti-corruption crackdown, which has resulted in the punishment of over 3.7 million public officials for graft over the last decade. However, the report raises doubts about the long-term effectiveness of such measures due to China\u2019s heavy reliance on punishment rather than institutional checks on power.<\/li><li>The countries at the bottom of the index include Myanmar (162), Afghanistan (162), North Korea (172), and Somalia (180), which had the lowest score of 11.<\/li><\/ol>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"has-el-gap el-gap-default elementor-section
