India ranks 129th on Global Gender Gap index, Iceland on top: WEF

India dropped to 129th place in the World Economic Forum's Global Gender Gap Index 2024, while Iceland retained the top spot. India ranks fifth in South Asia, trailing Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, and Bhutan, with Pakistan at the bottom. Despite progress in economic participation and educational enrolment, India's political empowerment and representation of women remain low. Globally, the gender gap will take 134 years to close at the current rate.
