|March 02, 2025
Cases go up from 4,581 in 2023 to 6,975 in 2024; officials highlight efforts to raise awareness in education institutions
TAMIL Nadu witnessed its steepest ever increase in the registration of cases under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act in 2024. Cases went up from 4,581 in 2023 to 6,975 in 2024, a 52.3% jump according to data accessed by TNIE.
Child rights activists and government officials stressed that this increase in registration of POCSO cases should not be seen as an alarming or sudden surge in crimes against children, but as a positive indication that cases, which would have otherwise gone unreported, have been coming to light due to strengthening of reporting mechanisms.
