[QUOTE="Archived_Member16, post: 178721, member: 884"] [b]40 rapes in a month in Sukhbir's ‘safe’ Punjab![/b] [B][COLOR="Navy"][SIZE="5"]40 rapes in a month in Sukhbir's ‘safe’ Punjab![/SIZE][/COLOR][/B] [COLOR="Navy"]Monday, January, 21 2013 - 18:52 By Charu Chhibber- PunjabNewsline [B]CHANDIGARH[/B]: Even though Punjab Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Singh Badal would like to portray Punjab as the “safest state” in the country, the latest statistics of crime against women fly in the face of his tall claims. As per a report, as many as 10 rape cases are reported every week and 40 per month in the state. Apart from this, there are an equal or perhaps more number of cases that go unreported due to several reasons. Even if we take the recent figures into consideration, Punjab definitely is among the top most unsafe states of the country today with as many as 39 cases of rapes, at least 12 molestation cases and several abduction cases of girls have been widely reported by the state’s media over the past 45 days. The figure is just the tip of the iceberg as numerous other cases were either not highlighted by the media or went unreported for various reasons. As per information obtained under the RTI Act, as many as 4,974 rape cases have been registered in the past 10 years (2002-2012). Shockingly, investigations in 251 rape cases is still pending while in 309 cases, the accused could not be traced. As many as 479 cases were cancelled. These are the figures till August 2012. There has been a sudden spate of crimes against women in the state over the past four months. As per another report, on an average, about 12 to 15 rape cases are heard every day in the district courts of Patiala, Ludhiana, Hoshiarpur, Bathinda, Jalandhar, Gurdaspur and Chandigarh. The most recent incidents that hit national headlines include the gangrape and consequent suicide of a 17-year-old in Patiala; gagnrape of a 29-year-old married woman on a moving bus in Gurdaspur; molestation of a cop’s daughter and his murder in Amritsar; abduction of a 15-year-old school girl at gun pointy from her home in Faridkot. Interestingly, Deputy Chief Minister Sukhbir Badal, who also heads the home portfolio, avoided any reference to crimes against women in the state during his speech in the Punjab Legislative assembly in the last session wherein he made tall claims that Punjab was the “safest state in the country”. Shockingly, even the official website of the Punjab Police does not depict the number of rape and molestation cases, reflecting upon the widespread callousness and apathetical attitude of the law enforcement agencies towards crime against women.
