भारत में रोज़ कितने बलात्कार के मामले दर्ज होते हैं?

NCRB के अनुसार 2024 में 29,536 मामले दर्ज हुए, यानी औसतन लगभग 81 मामले रोज़।

भारत में 2024 में बलात्कार के कितने मामले दर्ज हुए?

2024 में पूरे भारत में पुलिस ने बलात्कार के 29,536 मामले दर्ज किए।

2024 में किस भारतीय राज्य में सबसे अधिक मामले दर्ज हुए?

दिखाए गए राज्यों और केंद्र शासित प्रदेशों में राजस्थान में सबसे अधिक 4,871 मामले दर्ज हुए।

भारत में प्रति 1,00,000 आबादी पर दर्ज बलात्कार दर क्या है?

अंतरराष्ट्रीय संकलनों में साल और स्रोत के अनुसार भारत की दर प्रति 1,00,000 पर लगभग 1.8–2.2 दर्ज मामले है।

किस देश में दर्ज बलात्कार दर सबसे अधिक है?

इस तुलना में इंग्लैंड और वेल्स की दर सबसे अधिक है, लेकिन इसे वास्तविक व्यापकता या सुरक्षा रैंकिंग नहीं माना जा सकता।

अमेरिका में दर्ज बलात्कार दर कितनी है?

UNODC आधारित संकलनों में अमेरिका की दर प्रति 1,00,000 पर लगभग 38–41 दर्ज मामले है।

भारत में बलात्कार मामलों की दोषसिद्धि दर कितनी है?

2024 में पूरी हुई सुनवाइयों में दोषसिद्धि दर 24.4% थी।

कितने प्रतिशत आरोपी पीड़िता के परिचित थे?

NCRB 2023 के अनुसार 97.5% आरोपी पीड़िता के परिचित थे।

क्या भारत में बलात्कार के मामले कम दर्ज होते हैं?

हां। सामाजिक कलंक, डर, दबाव और पहुंच की बाधाओं के कारण वास्तविक संख्या दर्ज मामलों से अधिक हो सकती है।

क्या दुनिया भर के बलात्कार मामलों का भरोसेमंद कुल आंकड़ा है?

नहीं। देशों की परिभाषाएं और रिपोर्टिंग प्रणालियां अलग हैं और कई मामले कभी दर्ज नहीं होते।

ब्रिटेन और स्वीडन की दर्ज दरें अधिक क्यों दिखती हैं?

व्यापक कानूनी परिभाषाएं, बेहतर रिपोर्टिंग सुविधा और अधिक पूरी पुलिस रिकॉर्डिंग दर्ज दर बढ़ा सकती हैं।

भारत की दर्ज बलात्कार दर कम क्यों दिखती है?

कम पुलिस-दर्ज दर से वास्तविक घटनाएं कम होना साबित नहीं होता; कम रिपोर्टिंग, सामाजिक कलंक और रिकॉर्डिंग के तरीके इस संख्या को प्रभावित करते हैं।

बलात्कार और यौन उत्पीड़न के आंकड़ों में क्या अंतर है?

यौन उत्पीड़न आम तौर पर व्यापक श्रेणी है, जिसमें बलात्कार के साथ अन्य गैर-सहमति वाले यौन संपर्क भी शामिल हो सकते हैं।

अमेरिका के यौन उत्पीड़न आंकड़े कहां मिलते हैं?

अमेरिकी स्रोतों में FBI का पुलिस-दर्ज डेटा, Bureau of Justice Statistics के सर्वे और RAINN की व्याख्या शामिल हैं।

क्या देशों के यौन उत्पीड़न आंकड़ों की सीधी तुलना हो सकती है?

नहीं। देशों की व्यापक यौन उत्पीड़न श्रेणियां UNODC की बलात्कार दर की परिभाषा से मेल नहीं खातीं।

किस देश में दर्ज बलात्कार दर सबसे कम है?

चुनिंदा 30 देशों में सऊदी अरब की दर सबसे कम, लगभग 0.1 प्रति 1,00,000 है; स्रोत वर्ष उपलब्ध नहीं है। इतनी कम दर कम रिपोर्टिंग और रिकॉर्डिंग बाधाओं का नतीजा हो सकती है।

अमेरिका में बलात्कार मामलों की दोषसिद्धि दर कितनी है?

RAINN के अनुसार हर 1,000 यौन हमलों में 28 मामलों में गंभीर अपराध की दोषसिद्धि होती है, यानी 2.8%।

इंग्लैंड और वेल्स में बलात्कार मामलों की दोषसिद्धि दर कितनी है?

उद्धृत 2020 होम ऑफिस आंकड़ों में 52,210 दर्ज बलात्कार मामलों में 843 आरोप या समन हुए, यानी 1.6%। यह दोषसिद्धि दर नहीं है।

क्या देशों की बलात्कार दोषसिद्धि दरों की तुलना की जा सकती है?

सीधे नहीं। अलग देश अनुमानित हमलों, पुलिस में दर्ज मामलों, आरोपों या पूरी हुई सुनवाइयों जैसे अलग आधारों पर प्रतिशत प्रकाशित करते हैं।

Rape Statistics by Country 2024: Global Rates, India Data & State-wise Numbers (NCRB, UNODC)

GLOBAL VIEW

Rape statistics by country

देश के अनुसार दर्ज बलात्कार दर

Reported rape cases per 100,000 population, with each source year shown. These are police-recorded rates, not estimates of true prevalence.

Which country has the highest reported rape rate?

In this selected comparison, England & Wales has the highest displayed rate at 117.3 reported cases per 100,000. This does not prove that rape is most prevalent there.

Do not use this as a safety ranking. Country figures are not directly comparable. Legal definitions, police recording rules, whether repeated incidents are counted separately, access to reporting, and victims’ willingness or ability to report vary enormously. Higher reported rates can reflect broader definitions and stronger reporting systems; very low rates can reflect underreporting and stigma. UNODC cautions against naive international comparisons.

MALE VICTIMS

Male Victims — The Hidden Numbers

पुरुष पीड़ित — आंकड़ों में छिपी हकीकत

Male victimization is rarely captured consistently. Survey estimates reveal harm that police-recorded rape statistics—especially India’s—often cannot show.

United States · lifetime

About 1 in 33 American men have experienced an attempted or completed rape during their lifetime.

RAINN · CDC · US Department of Justice estimates

1.2%

United Kingdom · past year

About 275,000 men aged 16 and over experienced sexual assault, including attempts, in the previous year.

UK survey estimate · men aged 16+

Not separately counted

India · official rape statistics

NCRB does not publish a separate count of male rape victims. Under India’s IPC and BNS rape provisions, the victim is defined as a woman, leaving male victimization invisible in official rape data.

NCRB · IPC / BNS legal definition

Severe underreporting: one estimate suggests only around 5% of male victims ever report. Stigma, shame and fear of disbelief mean these survey-based figures should be treated as conservative—not as the full scale of victimization. The US lifetime figure and UK past-year figure use different time periods and should not be directly compared.

LGBTQ COMMUNITY

Global rape statistics and India data: FAQ

दुनिया और भारत के आंकड़ों पर अक्सर पूछे जाने वाले सवाल

Short answers about reported country rates, international comparability and India’s NCRB figures.

How many rapes happen daily in India?

NCRB registered 29,536 rape cases in 2024, equal to about 80.7 cases per day—roughly 81.

How many rape cases were registered in India in 2024?

Police registered 29,536 rape cases across India in 2024.

Which Indian state had the most rape cases in 2024?

Rajasthan had the highest absolute count among States and UTs shown, with 4,871 registered cases.

What is India’s reported rape rate per 100,000?

International compilations place India at approximately 1.8–2.2 reported cases per 100,000, depending on the year and source.

What is the reported rape rate in the United States?

UNODC-based compilations put the United States at approximately 38–41 reported cases per 100,000 population.

What is the rape conviction rate in India?

The 2024 conviction rate was 24.4% among rape trials completed during the year.

What percentage of offenders were known to the victim?

NCRB data for 2023 reported that 97.5% of accused persons were known to the victim.

Are rape statistics in India underreported?

Yes, recorded statistics cover only cases reported to and registered by police. Stigma, fear, social pressure and access barriers mean the actual number is likely higher.

Is there a reliable worldwide total of rape cases?

No. Countries use different definitions and reporting systems, many cases are never reported, and not every country supplies comparable data.

Why do reported rates look high in the UK and Sweden?

Broader legal definitions, separate counting of repeated incidents, stronger reporting access and more complete police recording can all raise the reported rate.

Why does India’s reported rape rate look low?

A low police-recorded rate does not establish low prevalence. Underreporting, stigma, access barriers, legal definitions and recording practices all influence the number.

What is the difference between rape and sexual assault statistics?

“Sexual assault” is generally a broader statistical category that can include rape and other non-consensual sexual contact. Definitions vary by country and agency, so the figures should not be mixed without checking scope.

Where can I find sexual assault statistics for the USA?

US sources include the FBI’s police-recorded crime data and the Bureau of Justice Statistics victimization surveys. RAINN explains these sources and reports that only about 310 of every 1,000 sexual assaults are reported to police.

Can sexual assault statistics be compared by country?

Not directly. Canada, Australia, the United States and other countries publish broader sexual-assault measures that do not match the UNODC rape-rate definition used in the country table.

Which country has the highest reported rape rate?

In the displayed UNODC-based selection, England & Wales has the highest rate at 117.3 reported cases per 100,000 (2022). This is not a prevalence or safety ranking.

Which country has the lowest reported rape rate?

Saudi Arabia has the lowest figure in this selected 30-country view at approximately 0.1 reported cases per 100,000; the compilation does not state the source year. Such a low rate can reflect underreporting, legal definitions and recording barriers—not safety.

What is the rape conviction rate in the USA?

RAINN’s US justice-stage synthesis says 28 of every 1,000 sexual assaults lead to a felony conviction—2.8%. This starts from estimated sexual assaults, not only police reports.

What is the rape conviction rate in England and Wales?

The cited 2020 Home Office figures show 843 charges or summonses from 52,210 recorded rapes, or 1.6%. This is a charge rate, not a conviction rate.

Can rape conviction rates be compared by country?

Not strictly. Published percentages use different starting points, including all assaults, police-recorded cases, charges and completed trials. Each figure must be read with its denominator.

Sexual assault statistics by country: why terminology matters

Rape vs sexual assault: terminology. The United States (FBI and victimization surveys), Canada (Statistics Canada) and Australia (ABS) also publish “sexual assault” statistics, a broader category than rape. Because definitions differ, the country table uses UNODC-based police-recorded rape rates per 100,000 as its consistent displayed metric.
India figures come from NCRB’s Crime in India annual reports. 2024 is the latest available year in this snapshot.
Daily, hourly and “one every 17.8 minutes” figures are simple averages: 29,536 divided across the 366 days of leap year 2024.
The “so far today” counter applies that average evenly from the viewer’s local midnight. It is a mathematical estimate, not an incident tracker.
Figures cover registered cases under rape provisions. POCSO cases are reported as a separate category.
International rates are reported police-recorded rates per 100,000, drawn from UNODC-based compilations with differing latest years. They are not prevalence estimates.
