India climbed five places to rank 91st in the Corruption Perceptions Index (CPI) 2025 released by Transparency International. The improvement reflects a modest rise in its overall score, indicating gradual progress in anti-corruption efforts. Despite this gain, the report notes that corruption remains a serious global concern, with the worldwide average score dropping to 42.
Transparency International warned that weak press freedom and poor accountability systems allow corruption to persist. The report stresses that protecting journalists is essential to exposing wrongdoing. Strong institutions, transparency, and independent media are seen as key to reducing corruption. The findings highlight the need for continued reforms to sustain India’s progress.
