This is a reply to Mr. Doc Smith, United States...

Mr. Smith, I WOULD REQUEST YOU TO PLEASE CHECK YOUR STATISTICS.

USA in 2010 had a total of 84767 cases(Highest in world) while India had 21397 cases of crime against women.

Also, rate per 100000 population in USA is 27.3 while that in India is 1.8.

Also, we are trying a lot to reduce this number.

Besides, there are a lot of movies against corruption like Raajneeti. Gang wars: Once Upon a time in Mumbai (1 and 2), GOW (1 ,2) etc. Female foeticide: Matrubhoomi.
