Law & Order
कानून व्यवस्था
- Crime Rate (per lakh): We track violent crimes, property crimes, and trends. City states often look worse due to density—context matters. Example: Burglaries fall after CCTV + patrols; assaults rise → mixed score.
- Crimes Against Women/Children/SC-ST: Focus on safety and justice for vulnerable groups. Example: Fast-track courts for POCSO cases raise deterrence.
- Conviction Rate & Pendency: High conviction + lower pendency shows effective investigation and prosecution. Example: Forensics + charge-sheeting reforms lift convictions in sexual assault cases.
- FIR Access & Transparency: Online FIRs, women help-desks, 112 helplines reduce barriers. Example: e-FIR for thefts cuts visits to thana and speeds action.
- Police Strength & Vacancies: Staffing and training levels decide response times. Example: Filling 10,000 constable vacancies reduces emergency response from 20 to 8 minutes.
- Custodial/Mob Violence & Communal Incidents: Zero-tolerance signals rule of law. Example: Quick arrests + compensation rules lower repeat incidents.
- Citizen Satisfaction (surveys/helpline data): Perception matters: are people safer? Example: Night-patrol focus areas report fewer harassment calls.
- Note: In Delhi, policing is under the Union Government; we weigh this factor with that limitation in mind.
