The list of the world’s safest countries is here, is Pakistan safer than India?
b
The Global Safety Index 2025 has released a new list of the safest countries in the world and some surprising figures have come out in it. Pakistan has achieved a better position by leaving India behind, while big countries like America, Britain and China have got relatively low ranking.
Let us know which country got how much rating and what could be the real reasons behind these figures.
Big difference in the security ranking of Pakistan and India
Pakistan has got 65th position in the Global Safety Index 2025 released by Numbeo, while India was at 66th position. This is an important sign for both the countries that now Pakistan has left India behind in terms of security. The special thing is that America, which is often included in the top countries for security, is at 89th place in this list, which is even below both the South Asian countries.
Dominance of countries like Andorra and UAE
Andorra has topped the list as the safest country with 84.7 points. It is followed by United Arab Emirates (84.5), Qatar (84.2), Taiwan (82.9), and Oman (81.7). These countries have topped this ranking due to their strong security system, low crime rate, and better standard of living.
What does this data say?
This ranking released by Numbeo is based on security surveys conducted by citizens of different countries. It looked at how satisfied people are with their safety during the day and night. Apart from this, the rate of theft, physical assault, harassment, discrimination, and other violent crimes has also been included in it.
This list tells us that the feeling of security around the world is always based more on personal experiences and sentiments than on statistics and information presented by the government.
What is the way forward for India and Pakistan?
There is a difference of only one point in the ranking of India and Pakistan, but this can be a matter of concern for both the countries. India will have to take steps towards improving its security system so that it can get a better place in this ranking in future.
So, if you are also thinking of traveling or living in the safest countries of the world, then keep this list in mind. Also, it is very important to be aware of the security of your country and take steps to improve it.
This new ranking of the Global Safety Index shows us that security is not only related to the government or law and order, but also to the experiences and perception of the general public. Pakistan overtaking India, America coming down and smaller countries being at the top indicate that we need to work more towards improving our security system.
