Rape is considered one of the most heinous crimes towards the individual and its individuality. It has been observed in the studies that there is a huge gap between the actual rape cases occurring and the rape cases that are being reported to the authorities. It is assumed that the increased number of reporting of such crimes will lead to an appropriate trial and justice for the victim. Further it will facilitate in decreasing such crimes in India. The present study aims at understand the major reasons behind the reporting of rape cases. The data for the study was collected from the NCRB (National Crime Record Bureau) and GOI (Government of India) websites. The results indicate that if the literacy rate of woman will increase the reporting of such crime will also increase. An educated woman will be a better custodian of her rights and responsibilities. |
