Rising Rape Cases in India: A Disturbing Reality


India, a country known for its rich culture and traditions, is unfortunately witnessing a disturbing rise in rape cases. Every day, newspapers and news channels report horrifying incidents of sexual violence against women, children, and even men. Despite strict laws and awareness campaigns, the situation does not seem to improve. Why are such crimes increasing, and what can be done to stop them?

The Growing Threat of Sexual Violence

The increasing number of rape cases in India is a major concern. According to reports, thousands of cases are registered every year, but many incidents still go unreported due to fear, social stigma, or lack of trust in the justice system. Women, especially in rural areas, often do not get the support they need to fight for justice. Even in urban areas, cases like Nirbhaya and Hyderabad veterinary doctor’s rape-murder remind us that safety is still a big issue.

Another reason for the rise in rape cases is the failure of proper implementation of laws. Although India has strict laws like the POCSO Act and the Nirbhaya Act, the legal process is often slow, and many criminals roam free due to lack of evidence or political influence. Education, strict law enforcement, and changing societal mindset are essential to prevent such crimes. People need to be taught the importance of consent and respect from a young age.


The rising rape cases in India reflect a deep-rooted problem in our society. It is not just the responsibility of the government or police but also of each individual to stand against such crimes. We must create a safer environment where victims feel encouraged to report crimes, and justice is served quickly. Only then can we hope to build a society where every person, especially women, can live without fear.

As a first-year BJMC student, I have always been fascinated by how these two worlds coexist, each with its own advantages and challenges. While rural life is known for its simplicity and close-knit communities, urban life offers modern facilities and a fast-paced environment. Let’s explore the key differences between these two lifestyles. 1. Environment and Surroundings Rural Life Villages are surrounded by nature, with fresh air, open fields, and a peaceful atmosphere. The environment is less polluted, and people live closer to nature, enjoying a slower and more relaxed pace of life. Urban Life Cities, on the other hand, are full of skyscrapers, traffic, and industries. The air is often polluted due to vehicles and factories. Though urban areas provide better infrastruct...

Medals, Marks, and Rejections: Bisma Fareed’s Story Proves That Skills Matter More Bisma  Bisma Fareed, a first-year BA English Honours student at Hansraj College, Delhi University, is living a story that many young students can relate to.

They want people who can get the work done , not just those who have good marks. B...
