What are the reasons for the increasing crime rate in India
The crime rates are rising in India and it is raising a question on how we can stop them. There are many reasons behind these rising crime rates and we will be looking at these crime rates to try and understand more about them.
A recent survey shows that there has been a 25 percent rise in crime rates in India. It is no secret that the world is getting more dangerous and this rise in crime rates is a reflection of that.
This blog will look at some of the main reasons for the increasing crime rate in India and how we can curb this rise in the crime rate.
The rising crime rate in India is a major cause of concern for the country and the police department is working hard to end it. But they are having a tough time trying to do so. The police department has stated that the major reason for the increase in the crime rate is the overcrowding of the prisons. But they are still thinking of ways to reduce the rising crime rate in the country.
Why are crime rates high in India?
India is a diverse nation. There are many popular tourist destinations in India. But crime rates are high in India. In this blog, We will look at the different types of crime in India and what can be done about these crimes in India.
The crime rate in India is on the rise. In the year 2016, India reported 4.7 lakh crimes as opposed to 4.3 lakh in 2015. The number of rape cases increased by 8% and the number of murder cases increased by 5.5% in that year alone. The total number of crimes against women also increased by 7.1% and in Delhi alone, the number of rape cases increased by 81.3%. That is why I thought that crime rates are high in India.
Is Crime in India increasing or decreasing?
Is our country becoming more or less criminal? The answer to this question is not as straightforward as most people think. Some argue that the crime rate is increasing while others believe it is decreasing.
Crime in India has been a huge problem and still is. Crime statistics are usually not reliable as they are usually underreported but if we can get a rough estimate of the numbers then we can get a better understanding of the situation. This blog will look at various crime statistics from agencies such as NCRB, NACS, and NFHS to look at the general crime trend and also the trend for individual crimes.
Types of Criminal Offenses:
When thinking about what crimes can be, there are different classifications for the different types of crime. These classifications can help with many different factors that can relate to the crime, such as the punishment for the crime. The crime itself can also be considered differently. This blog will go into detail about the different classifications and what they are.
Sex Crimes
The occurrence of sex crimes in India has seen tremendous growth in recent years. As per reports, there have been about 34,651 rapes in India in 2016 alone. In all these cases, it is seen that the accused is known to the victim. The occurrence of rapes is not gender-specific, but it is seen that the rapes are more in women than in men. The most startling fact is that children below the age of 14 are subjected to rape more than any other age group.
Drug Crimes
Drug Crimes in India may seem like minor offenses, but they are treated with the utmost seriousness under the law. In fact, drug crimes are a very serious offense as they violate the Narcotic Drugs and Psychotropic Substances Act.
Violent Crimes
In the last few years, we have seen a sharp rise in the number of violent crimes that have taken place in India. While violent crimes are on the rise, the number of people being caught and punished is going down. This doesn't mean that we need more laws or that the current laws should be changed but we do need to have an active conversation around violent crimes as this conversation is an important part of ensuring that violent crimes are curbed.
Theft Crimes
The theft rate in India has increased significantly in recent times. The number of cases has increased by almost 25% in the last couple of years. An analysis of the data shows that the most common types of theft in India are house theft, vehicle theft, mobile theft, and cybercrime.
ROOT CAUSES FOR INCREASING CRIME RATES:
INCOMPLETE EDUCATION SYSTEM
The education system of India is a very serious problem. I have some of my own personal experiences with this. I'll discuss the reasons behind this in detail in one of the following blogs.
The problem with this education system is not just limited to a lack of educational standards, but it is also related to the lack of practical training. Students are being taught in such a way that their educational standards are increasing but their future is in a very bad state. India is facing a serious unemployment issue. The reason behind this is the massive amount of freshers.
A SUPERFICIAL CULTURE
Superficiality is a chronic condition of modern Indians. We have become so shallow in our approach. We just view things from a single angle and remain totally oblivious to the rest. The lack of depth in our approach is very evident in various aspects of our lives like mentality, approach towards relationships, consumption by Indians, and so on.
INEFFECTIVE LAW AND ORDER SYSTEM
One of the biggest problems that India is facing today is the way the justice system is being abused by the rich and powerful and to the contrary, the common man is being subjected to blatant injustice by the system. This is the main reason why the common man in India is losing faith in the system. The truth is that, if justice is delayed in India, it's not denied.
ALCOHOLISM AND DRUGS
Alcoholism and drugs have been an issue in India for many years. It has become a problem for many families and society as a whole. It has affected the families of the addicts and the addicts themselves. It is so rampant that it is destroying the economy of the country.
CYBERCRIME
Cybercrime is a major issue in India but it is not well understood. You may have heard of the biggest cases like Yahoo and LinkedIn hacks but there are many more. They are growing in number and frequency.
Youth crime in India: Educated youth turn to crime.
Recently, Indian media has been writing extensively about the rising youth crime in many major cities. Most of these crimes have been committed by educated youth who come from well-to-do families. There are even business opportunities cropping up for criminals who have the right education and contacts.
