Journal Title: BEST : International Journal of Humanities , Arts, Medicine and Sciences ( BEST : IJHAMS ) - Year 2017, Vol 5, Issue 7
Abstract
Rape is considered to be, 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 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 understanding 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.
