Failed States Index.

This is one fascinating subject for me.I mean Failed States. I suspect India also to be one in some respects. I fear that India is a fragile state in more was than one.So when there was this list of 60 countries on Failed States Index, I was afraid India will be somewhere in the list. Surprise, it isn't there.
Before you people get confused, am referring to the article at

Should we feel happy that we don't figure in the list? Or feel bad that there are worse countries.
To add to our woes, we have 4 neighbours who are in that list. We all know, this kind of sickness is contagious.
Do we have a plan to meet challenges imposed by failed/ failing states apart from mandatory war againest terror/ debt relief schemes?
Wish we had one.
