Pakistan is at 108th position

Pakistan is currently ranked 108th in the World Happiness Report, much ahead of India. However, there are doubts about Pakistan as its data is very old. The UN survey agency says it lacks the latest data on Pakistan. Pakistan needs to make efforts to improve social support, quality of life and economic stability. In this report, India has been ranked 126th out of 143 countries. In the year 2024, India was at 126th position.
