The Shocking Crime Statistics Behind the 'Model State'

While Gujarat is often called a model state of development, the truth behind the statistics is

hard to ignore. According to the most recent crime data released by the National Crime

exceeded 7,800 cases in one year. Research also shows young women aged 18 to 30 are most

vulnerable to these assaults. These aren't just numbers. They are lives affected,
