1 Dec 2023

The three-volume report Crime in India 2022 was published by the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB), an agency under the Ministry of Home Affairs, Government of India, in December 2022. This is the 70th edition of the annual Crime in India report, the first of which was published in the year 1953.Crime in India 2022 presents data for the year 2022 on crimes across the country. It is based on information from the 36 states and union territories of the country. It also contains statistics on 53 metropolitan cities with a population of two million or more according to Census 2011. The data is consolidated by state police agencies and validated at both the district and the state level. It is then scrutinised by the NCRB for discrepancies or inconsistencies before compilation.The report makes note of several limitations, such as the lack of analysis of socio-economic causative factors of crime, the unavailability of data to compare crime rates of states and metropolitan cities, the unavailability of data for crime from Nagaland due to pending clarifications and the unavailability of analysis of crime rates for city-wise crimes under ‘children, SCs/STs and senior citizens’.The report consists of three volumes. This 518-page document is the second volume. It is divided into six chapters, including crime against senior citizens (Chapter 6), crimes/atrocities against Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes (Chapter 7), economic and corruption offences (Chapter 8), cyber-crimes (Chapter 9), offences against the State (Chapter 10) and offences related to the environment (Chapter 11)...
