This more than doubles the level of contraction — from 4.5% — that the IMF had projected for India just a few months ago. But more than the sharp contraction, what has caught everyone’s attention is that in 2020, the per capita income of an average Bangladeshi citizen would be more than the per capita income of an average Indian citizen. How It Started? Typically, countries are compared on the basis of GDP growth rate, or on absolute GDP. For the most part since Independence, on both these counts, India’s economy has been better than Bangladesh’s India’s economy has mostly been over 10 times the size of Bangladesh, and grown faster every year. However, per capita income also involves another variable — the overall population — and is arrived at by dividing the total

  Untold Story of Corruption and Economy Economies that are afflicted by a high level of corruption—which involves the misuse of power in the form of money or authority to achieve certain goals in illegal, dishonest, or unfair ways—are not capable of prospering as fully as those with a low level of corruption.

As a result, corruption in a nation's political and economic operations causes its entire society to suffer. Data on Corruption's Impact According to the World Bank, the average income in countries with a high level of corruption is about a third of that of countries with a low level of corruption. Also, the infant mortality rate in such countries is about three times higher and the literacy rate is 25% lower. No country has been able to completely eliminate corruption, but studies show that the level of corruption in countries with em
