The cases, it said, include those related to murder, attempted murder, crimes against women and hate speech.
The ADR said the data obtained from the poll panel's website reveals that a "significant portion of candidates contesting in the elections have self-declared criminal cases against them".
The analysis presents a breakdown of candidates with declared criminal cases party-wise, it said. The report stated that among the major parties, the Bharatiya Janata Party has 191 (43 per cent) of candidates who have declared criminal cases, while the Congress has 143 (44 per cent) of such candidates.
