| − | With increase in urbanization and globalization, crime rate across societies in the world is increasing day by day. Technology advancement is also cited as a reason for increasing crime rates. The rise in crime is viewed as a matter of major concern to any society. It is therefore necessary for the government to take necessary measures to reduce or prevent it. There are various forms of crime such as murder, rape, abduction, drug trafficking, prostitution, sexual harassment, and many more. <br>

| − | India is one of the countries in the world with high crime rates. There were 2.97 million crime cases reported in India in 2016 which is increase of 382% as compared to 6,01,964 crime cases reported in 1953. These numbers are however not accurate as many crime cases goes unreported due to reason such as fear, financial status, and long court proceedings. Crime against women including sexual harassment, rape, trafficking of women, child marriage, domestic violence, and female infanticides are most common crimes in India. The National Crime Records Bureau stated in one of its reports that 56 percent of crimes in India are committed by people in age group of 16 – 25 years. According to report released by Global Peace Index in 2017, India is ranked fourth most dangerous country for women travelers. Above statistics highlights the urgent need for government to ensure proper law and order situation in the country. This is necessary in order to improve the overall image of India among foreign travelers who are interested in visiting and exploring India. <br>

| − | We want to leverage on visual analytics capabilities to understand distribution and patterns of different crimes across India at district level. We also intend to supplement National Crime data with other external information such as census information to better understand crimes within India. <br>
