India ranks 78th on the World’s Best Countries’ list compiled by Newsweek magazine, which placed nations on the basis of health, education, economy and politics. Among India’s neighbours, China is ranked 59th, Sri Lanka is placed at 66th position, while Bangladesh and Pakistan has been placed at 88th and 89th spots respectively. Japan, South Korea and Singapore are the only three Asian countries in the top 20. The top four positions go to Finland, Switzerland, Sweden and Australia while the United Statescomes in at 11th with Germany at 12th and the United Kingdom at 14th.
“In Newsweek’s first-ever Best Countries special issue, we set out to answer a question that is at once simple and incredibly complex—if you were born today, which country would provide you the very best opportunity to live a healthy, safe, reasonably prosperous and upwardly mobile life?,” writes Rana Foorohar, deputy editor. The rankings are based on performance in areas such as education, health, economic dynamism and quality of life. India is described as a big country with 1.2 billion people with a small per capita income of $1,170 per capita.
In an article describing how the countries were ranked, Foorohar writes, “While remarkable individuals can be found in any nation on earth, certain countries give their citizens much greater opportunity to succeed than others at certain points in time.” India gets 2.5 for freedom of expression, political participation and electoral processes from Freedom House with 1 being the highest score. Pakistan scores low with 4.5. In the quality of life section, the study quotes the World Bank statistics as 75 per cent of the population living on less than $2 per day.

Jammu and Kashmir state to India last several years, the problem remains. Central government to normalize conditions in Kashmir for many years been saddled with millions of dollars of resources, but results are not satisfactory.
Central Government's priority list over the K always has been. K compared to other states has always been much relief, but after that conditions are not coming under control. Kashmir state plans to develop 13 252 crores in 2009-10 helped. But the point is that such a huge amount is being given at what price? Poverty, hunger, unemployment, etc. are battling the state's problems - such as Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh Budget gets much less than K.Each of these state of Kashmir was a part of the total budget nearly a quarter are missing. K resource center on safety in the much larger budget is spent.
Terrorism and separatism in the country in some other states dominate, but the Centre never seen them so generously. RBI report eight north eastern states, where separatism has given Rs 29 084 in 2009-1010, while only one state 13 252 K Ane helped Karozr Rs.
One truth is that the correct use of funds to meet the center is not. Ane school social sector, health and rural development Kashmir government spent 30 per cent of the total budget, while the national average is 40 per cent. States such as Chattisgarh and Rajasthan has a lot more money spent in these areas. If the state develops the right way then perhaps conditions would not be so bad. In addition, the government police can not effectively use is.
But also a matter of thinking that people with a group of separatists Why? What people together separatist and terrorist forces should not resist?
Now the point is that the current situation in Kashmir Valley who is responsible for, the Central Government, State Government or the public?
62 years of independence India's image has definitely changed. India's tremendous progress in all areas and improved its image is formed on the map. Is the field of science, business, sports or any other, country flags in all sectors are buried. Yet the average Indian poverty, misery, trouble is living life. He has to wander in search of peace.
Corruption has entered deep down in our system. Anywhere, to be honest if any work is surprising. The sheer lack of agility in the system. One is that red tape and Latletifi. System 62 years old like a sloth, Latletifi is working.
It has also recently people who, like the position he has accepted. People do not bother to take the vote. Shake his belief system, they separated themselves from the system seem to try to walk. What should I do? Who will listen to me? They are put under the guise of questions, such as silence. There are many examples that people are awake while the system is changed. The biggest problem in this country then what is the slowness of the public? Or corruption is the root of many diseases? Or Latletifi the whole game has spoiled? After all, India's biggest problem is?
