NEW DELHI/MUMBAI: Public outrage against corruption may have been the main factor behind the change of governments at Centre and in Delhi during the past two years, but corruption in the public sector is still rife. India's score in the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) for 2015 remained unchanged at 38 as it was in the previous year. As per the scoring system adopted, higher the score points on a scale of 0-100, lower is the corruption in that country.

Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) 2015 released on Wednesday shows that India has moved up in rank from 85 position to 76 (however the number of countries ranked in 2015 was 168 against 174 nations in 2014). Based on expert opinion from around the world, CPI measures the perceived levels of public sector corruption worldwide.

Barring Bhutan ranked 27, which with a score of 65 fares much better than India, other neighbouring countries continue to have a poor record. While China at rank 83 and Bangladesh at rank 139 have reported no improvement, scores of Pakistan, Sri Lanka and Nepal have increased marginally over the past year.
