upper one is not the complete one. Out of VIBGYOR , each colour suffers RAYLAIGH SCATTERING which is inversely propertional to the 4th power of wavelength. violet & indigo are even more scattered than blue but our eye is most sensitive towards blue among these

violet,indigo,blue have least wavelength among visible rays, so they scatter the most, due to which the sky appears bluish
