If you look at the 2007 NCRB report as well, the assertion that “90 percent of rape victims in 2007 are Dalit women” doesn’t hold true. If you look at Page 5 of this document of NCRB 2007, it shows a total of 1,648 rape cases in UP and 20,737 cases across India in 2007. The first page of this document of the same 2007 NCRB report shows 318 rape case against Dalit women in UP and 1,349 across all of India. The percentage of rapes on Dalit women comes to 19.2 per cent in UP and 6.5 per cent for India. Additionally, the assertion that “85% of Dalit rape victims were underage girls” is also not borne out by the NCRB data. Page 5 of the same document of NCRB 2007 shows that 71 per cent in UP and 75 per cent in India of all rape cases were actually above the age of 18.
