Census effect: Cities will see ‘less crime’ next year Crime rates in Indian cities are set to show a decline in 2027 due to a mathematical glitch in National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) calculations. NCRB uses outdated Census population figures as denominators, causing crime rates to appear inflated until the next Census updates these numbers, leading to dramatic drops. #Cities #Indian_cities #NCRB #National_Crime #Crime_Records #Records_Bureau #Crime_rates #Census_effect #mathematical_glitch #year_Crime
In a 1st, NCRB tracks cases of cruelty against animals: 10,312 arrested in 2024 For the first time, the National Crime Records Bureau has tracked animal cruelty cases, registering 9,039 incidents and arresting over 10,000 individuals in 2024. Maharashtra led with the highest number of cases. The data reveals a high conviction rate for concluded cases but significant delays in judicial disposal. #National #Crime #Records #NCRB #National_Crime #Crime_Records #Records_Bureau #NCRB_tracks #tracked_animal #animal_cruelty
