Two days after Daughter’s Day, yet another young girl’s life in India was brutally snuffed out. The 19-year-old died in Delhi’s Safdarjung Hospital, 15 days after she was allegedly gang-raped and tortured in Uttar Pradesh’s Hathras by a group of upper-caste men.
She was the fifth girl and third Dalit girl who was allegedly raped and brutally murdered in the last two months in UP.
According to the latest data released by the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), India recorded 88 rape cases every day in 2019. Out of the total 32,033 reported rape cases in the year, 11 per cent were from the Dalit community, as per NCRB’s annual report titled "Crimes in India -2019".

“Women of Dalit communities are more vulnerable. They are under tremendous social pressure because of their cast. They hesitate to report rape cases. No one in the police station listens to them in most of the cases, even if they dare to lodge an FIR. This police apathy is mostly because of them being from the lower cast. It is high time to have a gender sensitisation drive for police at every level,” Yogita Bhayana of People Against Rapes in India (PARI), an organisation that seeks to support rape survivors, told India Today.
India's rape pandemic
According to the NCRB report, maximum rape cases are reported from Rajasthan and Uttar Pradesh. Nearly 6,000 rape cases were reported in Rajasthan, followed by 3,065 cases in Uttar Pradesh in 2019.

Uttar Pradesh and Rajasthan have seen a rise in sexual violence as a tool of oppression against Dalit communities. Of all the reported rape cases in Uttar Pradesh, 18 per cent victims are Dalit women, almost double of that in Rajasthan (9 per cent).

The rape vulnerability of a girl or woman has increased up to 44 per cent in the last 10 years, the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) data shows. According to the NCRB data, during the period 20102019, a total of 3,13,289 cases were reported across India.

While sexual crimes against women have been on the rise, the brutal gang rape of Nirbhaya in 2012 shook the nation’s consciousness like no other. It prompted policymakers to make amendments to criminal law and come up with stringent punishment in rape and sexual assault cases.

This also included an amendment in the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, 2012, to allow the death penalty for the rape of children younger than 12 years. However, the atrocity on the young girl in Hathras is clearly an indicator of how these provisions for harsher punishments have not deterred perpetrators.

The sad thing is most of the cases are unreported. The victims dare not to tell the police to family. They just don't want to be humiliated by others. The actually case per day is far bigger.
Also most criminals were not punished. They can bribe the judge, or police.
Check India congressmen. Most of them are actually charged with crimes, but they are still elected.

Who said higher caste men in India have white skin? Only in Bollywood movies. They are dark as their sick minds.
