<br/><br/> In India, incidents of crime and crime rates against women are increasing steadily during the 21st century with considerable distributional inequalities among the states, districts, and metropolitan cities. Most of the high-crime-prone districts are located in north and central India. Crime against women varies among the social groups and the crime against Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes women is relatively high.
