Haryana state police chief Shatrujeet Kapur said on Thursday that the crime statistics are a symbol of transparency and should not be construed as a high crime rate.
Referring to the recently released Crime in India-2023 report that placed the state in fourth place in terms of number of cases registered, DGP Kapur said the report also reflects the “commitment of Haryana Police towards public interest”.
“In 2023, a total of 2,24,216 FIRs were registered in Haryana, placing the State at the fourth position in the country in terms of FIR registrations. These figures are not a sign of excessive crime, but rather the result of a transparent and citizen-centric policy of registering every case. On deeper analysis, about 67,000 of these cases are related to electricity and water theft, and 15,529 pertain to missing persons. Thus, 83,113 cases are confined to just these two categories. Excluding them, the actual crime rate drops significantly, placing Haryana well below the top 10 states nationally,” DGP Kapur said in a statement.
