Crime rate against Children-India

Investigating Crime Trends and Patterns Across India

By Bhavna Chawla [source]

About this dataset

This dataset provides an in-depth look at crime against children throughout India. The data, collected from state and union territories throughout the country, tracks arrests made in response to a variety of crimes including infanticide, murder of children, rape of Children, kidnapping and abduction of children, foeticide, abetment of suicide, exposure and abandonment. Additionally it looks at procuration of minor girls as well as buying or selling minors for prostitution. It also illustrates arrests made related to violation or prevention under the Prohibition Of Child Marriage Act (PCMA).

The dataset paints an unfortunately dark image across India with rising numbers each year - painfully representing the suffering these innocent minors have faced over time. Through this dataset we can not only get a better understanding on who is leading the charge in terms of crime rate but also uncover startling patterns about type specified categories that are particularly egregious when it comes to number of arrests made. By examining this data more closely together we can unravel meaningful solutions which ultimately could help protect our beloved child population from needless harm and distress

How to use the dataset

This dataset is suitable for researchers interested in learning more about crime against children as well as government planners who may want to analyze which states have higher rates of various types of crimes and identify strategies for managing them.

To use this dataset, start by examining the main columns – STATE/UT, CRIME HEAD, 2001-2012 – which provide additional information about each row such as state or UT name and type of crime committed respectively. Then you can use a visualized comparison to evaluate trends across all the listed years: a look at total numbers or changes over time will help reveal how arrests vary among different categories or within a particular year; it will also identify areas with particularly high numbers that need more attention from policy makers. These visualizations can also be compared with statistics on population density or socio-economic characteristics such as literacy rate or poverty levels to get further insights into characterizing patterns for targeted interventions that could reduce criminal activities towards vulnerable communities.

Additionally, you could use this dataset combined with other external sources/variables (governance measures taken against certain categories etc.) to build predictive models that identify relationships between risks factors associated with higher rate of specific type(s) criminal activities prevailing amongst certain age group(s). Such approaches would help contribute towards evidence informed public safety interventions, public health initiatives and legal systems strengthening over time specifically targeting those districts where higher rates are taking place so that people especially women & girls are protected from any form physical abuse & harassment leading potential threat on their living condition & livelihood opportunities eventually affecting national development levels if left unchecked regularly each year progressing forward

Research Ideas

• This dataset could be used to identify the states with the highest crime rates against children, and explore any potential correlations between crime statistics and social or economic factors in those states.
• This dataset can also be used to analyze state-wise trends over time to assess whether government initiatives aimed at curbing crimes against children have been effective or not.
• The dataset can also help researchers examine which type of crimes are most prevalent in each state/UT and come up with ways to reduce these crimes via policy measures or public outreach programs, etc

How to use the dataset

How to Use this Dataset

This dataset offers insight into the types of crimes committed in India under the Indian Penal Code (IPC) and their respective rates of arrests. This dataset can be used to track changes in rates of arrests, provide a more comprehensive understanding on crime rate trends in India.

To use this dataset, you should understand the following columns: - Crime Head: The type of crime committed according to Indian Penal Code (IPC). - The number of persons arrested for the crime each year. - Percentage Variation: The percentage change in number of persons arrested for the crime - Percentage Share of Arrestees under Each Crime: The percentage of persons arrested for each type of crime compared to total arrests done in all crimes during that year.

With these columns, you can determine which IPC crimes were most commonly committed or saw an increase or decrease in arrest. Additionally, by comparing Percentage Variation Rate with Percentage Share Of Arrestees Under Each Crime we can determine which type(s) have seen an increasing grasp over years and vice versa!

Research Ideas

• Leveraging the data to form correlations between different crime types and areas of residence, to identify crime hot spots across India.
• Conducting an analysis on the year-on-year variation in arrests for each crime category, to identify trends in criminal activity.
• Using the percentage share data to better prioritize law enforcement efforts towards tackling particular crimes or regions of increased activity
