India was named the world’s fourth most dangerous country to travel, according to a global survey conducted by the U.K.’s financial comparison site HelloSafe.
HelloSafe compiled the travel safety index based on 35 different criteria that were boiled down into five categories: the frequency of natural disasters, societal violence, involvement in armed conflict (internal or external), health infrastructure and militarization.
Nations were rated on a scale from 0 to 100 with 0 representing the safest and 100 being the most dangerous.
India scored 77.86 points, after the Philippines (82.31), Colombia (79.21) and Mexico (78.42).
India often made headlines regarding violence against women.
In March, two suspects were arrested in connection with the gang-rape of two women including an Israeli tourist and the death of a man near the Group of Monuments at Hampi, an ancient village in the south Indian state of Karnataka, AFP reported.
The rest of the top 10 most dangerous countries according to HelloSafe survey were Russia, Yemen, Somalia, Mozambique and Pakistan.
