A child rights group has said that crimes against children in 2021 rose 16.3 per cent as compared to the previous year. It also said that the coronavirus pandemic has left children far more exposed and vulnerable as proved by recent National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) data.

An analysis by child rights NGO CRY - Child Rights and You - on the latest data released by the NCRB, show 149,404 crimes against children were recorded in 2021.

It meant that crimes were committed against children every hour 17 which translates to 409 incidents of crimes being committed every day against children in the country.

The data said, “There is a worrying rise in number of crimes against children when compared to last year - while NCRB data revealed that 1,28,531 cases of crimes that had been recorded in 2020 , total number of crimes stood at 1,49,404 in 2021 – indicating a remarkable 16.2 per cent increase in crimes reported against children." The NCRB data said that between 2022 and 2021, crimes against children increased sharply by 351 per cent.
