The Quint’s ‘What After Rape’ Campaign: Rapes Reported Today

As Independent India turns 70, The Quint’s year-long-campaign will attempt to track rapes reported every day.

In India, 34,651 rapes were reported in 2015.

Nearly 95 rapes every day.

But the only time we get angry about rape or decide to mobilise in large numbers is when a particularly horrific rape catches our attention on a seemingly slow-news day.

As India enters its 70th year, The Quint is going to track rapes reported every day in India for one year.

By no means are we claiming that this will be a comprehensive report. These are rapes reported in the media or through information obtained from police stations.
