By the time you finish reading this news report at least five violent crimes would have been reported in Uttar Pradesh. With a case of murder or dacoity or rioting or rape being registered every minute, UP has emerged as the most violent state in India. And Delhi, the most unsafe metro for women. At least, the National Crime Record Bureau (NCRB) compilations for 2006 say so.
As per the latest report, 15 cases of murders, 13 murder attempts, 10 riots and nine kidnappings were reported from the state every day in 2006. No doubt, Big B's claim of crime rate being low in UP invited strong rebuttal from masses in 2007.
