sexual crimes are about 20 times lower per capita in India and most of Asia compared to the western world.
India literally has one of the lowest sexual crimes per capita figures in the world.

Talk to actual travellers, they will tell you experiences. Sexual harassment is not even captured in official statistics, because most of the time people don't report it, specially foreign tourists.

There is a standard copy-paste argument that keeps getting repeated to cast doubts on that piece of data - that, sexual assaults are disproportionately underreported in India compared to 'other nations'. Not that this argument has much literary basis but anyway....

In fact, India records more than 90% of its deaths accurately and records it on the AADHAR database - which immediately rules out the possibility of the existence of a significant no of unaccounted deaths which in turn suggests relatively low prevalence of violent crimes (including, but not limited to sexual assaults).

Lastly, reporting across Indian media is generally crime heavy (unlike gora media, which is politics/op-ed heavy). The Pune road rage incident stayed on news for weeks. Then there was that RG Kar incident. Now, the suicide of Atul Shubhash is making frontpage headlines in national dailies.

Think about this. If they (the phoren mideawallahs) started reporting every time a mass shooting incident takes place or a pedophile/pedophile ring is busted their front pages would run out of spaces. You are extremely unlikely to witness the kind of media trials, candle marches or activism over a hit and run case or a rape in goraland we are accustomed to in India.

There is zero basis in reality to 'muh less reporting'. because India has similar conviction rate for rape as most asian nations do - we average roughly 27% conviction rate ( meaning 27% of cases that go before a judge yeild guilty verdict). The comparative number for western nations is 1.5-4% for rape cases.

So by objective data, Indian women are far more likely to report rape than western women, as they are literally 7-8 times more likely to get justice.

i prefer data over unverified goobledegook nonsense propaganda, since i am a math expert who deals in data.
We can also ask the asian travellers of what the sexual harassment scene is in the west and they make it sound like visiting Syria.
ALL credible data shows that India is about 20 times better per capita than the west at women's safety. Which is YUUUGE difference in numbers, if it was economics, it would be like comparing USA with Chad.

I am not talking general crime, I am speaking of specifically sexual harassment. Foreign tourists face much more sexual harassment in India, specifically in golden triangle (Delhi, Jaipur, Agra) is much much worse than ASEAN countries.

Didn't we go down this road before on DFI where it was largely debunked? Why are you rehashing this old argument?

so u r saying in other nation these things not happening nd all their cases r reported.
in 2023 total 9.24 million foreign tourist came to india....tell me how many lakh of tourist u meet nd ask their experience?? r they not actual tourist?
i cant say about other state...but in my state uttarakhand. sexual harrasment of foreign lady is very rare. personally i didnt heard any case of raping nd even harrasment of foreign lady here (not saying it not happen ever). uttarakhand welcome many foreign tourist. just imagine they even reached in our ancestors tribal village, which is very close (near 40-50 km) to tibbet. not even me yet visited there, coz roads r still in building phase from many years. only my living grandmother (untill her 16 age near 1960-62) nd father (only two time he go there, first time for making property proofs nd second last year for building kuldevi mandir) visited. no other family member go there.
but this Ukrainian girl reached there 6-7 year ago. even most uttarakhandi nd even this village district people didnt go there. there r no hotel etc nd only for 3-4 months 4-5 family older people go there in summer nd return back in September.
