New data shows alarming rise in hate crimes with 3,576 incidents since 2014

In a significant move to address the increasing incidents of hate crimes in India, the Association for Protection of Civil Rights (APCR) has launched a new website dedicated to tracking these events. The newly unveiled platform provides comprehensive data revealing that 3,576 hate crime incidents have been reported since 2014, highlighting a disturbing trend across the nation. This initiative aims to offer transparency and raise public awareness about the severity and frequency of hate crimes, ensuring that accurate information is accessible to policymakers, media, and citizens alike. The website serves as a crucial tool for advocacy, helping to catalyze informed discussions and potential legislative responses. By centralizing this data, APCR hopes to encourage more robust community engagement and government accountability in addressing hate crimes. This launch is particularly relevant in today’s socio-political climate where instances of discrimination and violence are garnering increased attention from global human rights organizations.
