extra care (Cached) 29.8.2010 Telegraph: Opinion
The news is as bad for children as it is for women. Crimes against women and children have increased quite sharply since last year. National Crime Records Bureau estimates show that crimes against children, including murder, rape and abduction have risen by 7.6 per cent. Kidnapping alone has grown by 30 per cent. The Centre has asked all states to set up a special desk in each police station that will deal exclusively with crimes against women and children. This is a logical enough response. There is no dearth of laws for the protection of women, although that does not seem to deter violence against them. But it seems sensible to try and ensure that women's complaints are recorded and investigated properly.
