What is Digital Quality of Life Survey? “In many countries, the idea of ‘quality of life’ has expanded to include a larger definition that includes ‘digital quality of life. Now that so much of daily life, including work, education, and leisure, is done online, there is no other way to look at it. Because of this, it’s critical to identify the regions where a country’s digital quality of life thrives and where attention is required, which is the exact goal of the DQL Index, according to Gabriele Racaityte-Karasauske, a spokesperson for Surfshark. In a poll conducted by the Digital Quality of Life Index, India came in at number 52 out of 121 nations. Surfshark, a cybersecurity company, conducted the survey. The Netherlands-based company’s yearly assessment assessed 121 nations based on five criteria: internet quality, affordability, e-infrastructure, e-government, and e-security. Last year, India was rated 59th. This indicates a seven-place improvement this time. According to Surfshark, the country’s improved internet quality is the cause of this increase. India is ranked 16th out of 121 nations in terms of the quality of the internet. India was ranked 28th, 25th, and 66th in the world for variables including internet accessibility, e-governance, and e-security, respectively. When average internet speed is taken into consideration, the report places Singapore and Saudi Arabia in the top spots. Both of them are 300 Mbps and 310 Mbps. Despite not having the fastest internet, it is extremely stable in India. According to the survey, the country’s mobile internet speeds have increased by an astounding 297 percent. This has been connected to the widespread rollout of 5G. It has been observed that fixed broadband speeds have modestly increased by 16%. India is the nation with the best internet affordability, according to the ranking. According to reports, Indians must work 1 hour 48 minutes a month to pay for a fixed broadband line and 44 minutes 22 seconds to pay for a mobile internet plan.
