\nThe incorrect statement as per the Climate Change Performance Index (CCPI)-2023 is D) India is placed lower in rank in this index than Norway and United Kingdom.
\n<\/section>\n
\nIn the CCPI 2023, India was ranked 8th. The UK was ranked 11th, and Norway was ranked 16th. A lower rank number indicates better performance. Therefore, India (rank 8) is placed *higher* in rank (performing better) than the United Kingdom (rank 11) and Norway (rank 16). Statement D is the inverse of the reality.
\n<\/section>\n
\nStatement A is correct: India jumped 2 spots from its 10th rank in CCPI 2022 to 8th rank in CCPI 2023. Statement B is correct: India is indeed placed at the 8th rank. Statement C is correct: The CCPI report leaves the first three ranks empty, considering no country is performing well enough across all categories. Ranks 4-15 are categorized as “High” performance. India, at rank 8, is well within this “High” performance category and is among the top countries ranked (specifically among the top 5 countries that *actually occupy a rank* from 4 onwards: Denmark (4), Sweden (5), Chile (6), Morocco (7), India (8)).
