&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;After being classified as &amp;#39;electoral autocracy&amp;#39; last year by Sweden&amp;#39;s V-Dem Institute, India continues to hold on to its dubious honour even this year.&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&lt;em&gt;New Delhi: &lt;/em&gt;India has figured in the top 10 autocratising countries of the world along with El Salvador, Turkey and Hungary, with projections ominously indicating that there will be a further decline in democracy in the country, according to the &lt;a href=&quot;https://v-dem.net/media/publications/dr_2022.pdf&quot;&gt;latest report&lt;/a&gt; of the V-Dem Institute on the state of democracy globally.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;After being classified as &amp;lsquo;electoral autocracy&amp;rsquo; in the last year&amp;rsquo;s report, India continues to hold on to its dubious honour even in this year&amp;rsquo;s report. Consequently, India finds itself in the category of the bottom 40% to 50% of countries. Much of the slide in India&amp;rsquo;s democratic credentials has occurred in the years following the rise and consolidation of power by the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, after 2014.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;Titled &lt;a href=&quot;/upload/files/V%20Dem%20Democracy%20Report%202022.pdf&quot;&gt;Democracy Report 2022:&lt;/a&gt; Autocratisation Changing Nature, the Swedish institute&amp;rsquo;s report notes that a new wave of democratisation is being seen in 15 countries while 32 countries reel under autocrasation. The countries are categorised based on V-Dem&amp;rsquo;s liberal democracy index (LDI), which captures both electoral and liberal aspects of democracy and goes from the lowest (0) to the highest (1) levels of democracy.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;The report highlights that autocratisation has &amp;ldquo;worsened&amp;rdquo; in India along with Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Thailand and the Philippines in the Asia-Pacific region in the last decade.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;Anti-pluralist parties are driving the autocratisation in at least six of the top autocratizers: Brazil, Hungary, India, Poland, Serbia, and Turkey,&amp;rdquo; the report notes.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p style=&quot;text-align:justify&quot;&gt;&amp;ldquo;Anti-pluralist parties are driving the autocratisation in at least six of the top autocratizers: Brazil, Hungary, India, Poland, Serbia, and Turkey,&amp;rdquo; the report notes.&lt;/p&gt;

'India Among Top 10 Autocratising Nations; Democratic Slide to Continue': V-Dem Institute

-TheWire.in After being classified as 'electoral autocracy' last year by Sweden's V-Dem Institute, India continues to hold on to its dubious honour even this year. New Delhi: India has figured in the top 10 autocratising countries of the world along with El Salvador, Turkey and Hungary, with projections ominously indicating that there will be a further decline in democracy in the country, according to the latest report of the V-Dem Institute on the state of democracy globally. After being classified as ‘electoral autocracy’ in the last year’s report, India continues to hold on to its dubious honour even in this year’s report. Consequently, India finds itself in the category of the bottom 40% to 50% of countries. Much of the slide in India’s democratic credentials has occurred in the years following the rise and consolidation of power by the BJP and Prime Minister Narendra Modi, after 2014. Titled Democracy Report 2022: Autocratisation Changing Nature, the Swedish institute’s report notes that a new wave of democratisation is being seen in 15 countries while 32 countries reel under autocrasation. The countries are categorised based on V-Dem’s liberal democracy index (LDI), which captures both electoral and liberal aspects of democracy and goes from the lowest (0) to the highest (1) levels of democracy. The report highlights that autocratisation has “worsened” in India along with Afghanistan, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Hong Kong, Thailand and the Philippines in the Asia-Pacific region in the last decade. “Anti-pluralist parties are driving the autocratisation in at least six of the top autocratizers: Brazil, Hungary, India, Poland, Serbia, and Turkey,” the report notes.
