The government data reveals that 1 woman reported a rape every 15 mins in India in 2018. Women reported almost 34,000 rapes in 2018. As per the annual crime report, about 85% led to charges and 27% to convictions. Women’s rights groups say crimes against women are often taken less seriously, and investigated by the police with less sensitivity. A BJP member says there are very few forensic labs in the nation.
