Completely Agree with Harish and Kartik !!! Its HIGH TIME news reporters learn some Basic Maths and more importantly have some pride for own country than Copy-pasting news from US Media !!

Why all of us are looking at the population versus murders ratio?
Mind it, the figures mentioned are the cases registered and there are numerous murders/accidents which never get lime lights that Arushi/Jessica etc. got because of Media.

Instead comparing the figures & ratio, better we do cosntructive to save our society. Shouldnot wait for India ratio matching with other nations.
We all must accept that we are converting into resteless, unorganized and uncivilized society which will only end up in DISASTER.

Thanks to the author for showing us the MIRROR!!!

It's better we look at our stats and problems rather than pointing at other systems. but for sure, things are worst here and worsening every day!

Do not compare ourselves with others for atleast murders and crimes...
