Answer: 131st
Notes: 676 million women globally were exposed to conflict in the past year, marking a 74% rise since 2010. Three decades of progress on women’s rights and status have stagnated or declined, according to the Women, Peace and Security (WPS) Index 2025-26. The WPS Index, by Georgetown Institute for Women, Peace and Security and Peace Research Institute Oslo, ranks 181 countries based on inclusion, justice, and security for women. India ranks 131st with a score of 0.607, showing steady but uneven progress. Top three countries are Denmark, Iceland, and Norway.
