Is Crime Rising in Rajasthan? -Avadhesh Akodia

-TheWire.in

While the BJP says that the state leads in crime, the Rajasthan government attributes the rise in cases to its policy of compulsory registration of FIRs.

Jaipur: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leaders in Rajasthan lately have been vocal on one issue: rising crime in the state. Whenever a case of loot, murder or rape is reported, local leaders rally against chief minister Ashok Gehlot with the charge that Rajasthan has topped in the country in terms of crime.

If we look at the crime statistics of Rajasthan Police, this charge seems valid. This year, 3,777 cases of rapes were registered in the state between January and July. The number of rapes during the same period last year was 2,972, which means there is a rise of 25.07% crimes against women.
