There has been an unbelievable and heart-shattering surge in rapes in India - their number more than doubled between 2001 and 2020.
The incidence of rapes is determined by interplay of several factors: Economic, demographic, social, efficiency of the police and judicial systems, and exposure to mass media.
It is more hurting that women are unwilling to report even those incidents that fit the legal definition of rape or attempted rape. Sometimes this is due to their successful resistance and the ambiguous feelings that they have about whether the harm that was inflicted reached the level of a criminal act, and their doubts about the integrity of the system to which they have to report.

It is our duty to build a safe country for the women so that they can walk around freely and stand-up against anything that is wrong or unacceptable.
