Pakistanis more joyful than Indians: UN report

According to the latest United Nations ranking of the world's happiest countries, Indians seem to get unhappier by the year.

In the 2017 World Happiness Report, India dropped four places and a further 11 places in the 2018 report with a rank low 133 on the list of 156 countries.

The United Nations' Sustainable Development Solutions Network monitors the list for its annual 'joy' report.

Coming to India’s neighbour, Pakistan, which was already holding a better ranking in 2017, is now at number 75, up five spots from last year.

Also, India's immediate neighbours are more joyful than Indians even though many of them are not being nearly as well-off economically or even socially.

China, Bangladesh, Bhutan, Nepal, and Sri Lanka are all ahead of India.

Finland is at the top among 156 countries in the World Happiness Report ranked by happiness levels. The factors that are considered in the report include life expectancy, social support and corruption.
