This is the norm of people there. Indics like Karachi will try and pretend things are getting better, when these are all latest news and reports (countless).. The best he can do is pull out articles 7 years old.

Considering the size and the population of India, there will be such incidence here and there. These kind of people exist in all countries. Rape is not something endorced by Indian culture or society. It is seen as abhorent throughout the world just like Bacha bazi is is despised in Afghanistan. Maligning a whole country of over a billion people for the actions of the few is both illogical, shameful and a huge generlization. Then muslims complain why they are called terrorists because of the actions of a few.

Bacha bazi is a major aspect of Afghan culture and society just like misogyny and rape is a major aspect of Indian culture. That doesn't mean all Afghans love boys and all Indians rape.

Truth is, bacha bazi is a HUGE problem in Afghanistan. Acknowledging that is not generalization. It's just stating facts. Suggesting it is only a minor problem involving a small minority would be outright denial of true nature and size of the problem.

The same applies to India and rape. There are even large human rights organizations in India dedicated to combatting rape culture.

India ranks 130 out of 155 countries in the Gender Inequality Index (GII) for 2014, way behind Bangladesh and Pakistan that rank 111 and 121 respectively, according to data in the United National Development Programme’s latest Human Development Report (HDR) 2015.
Among South Asian countries, India fares better than only Afghanistan which is at 152.
The index captures inequalities in gender-specific indicators: reproductive health measured by maternal mortality ratio and adolescent birth rates, empowerment quantified by share of parliamentary seats and attainment in education, and economic activity measured by labour market participation rate.
Pakistan and Bangladesh have a lower Human Development Index (HDI) than India and yet perform better on gender equality as measured by GII. India is placed 130 out of 188 on the Human Development Index (HDI) with Bangladesh at 142 and Pakistan at 147.
But with respect to each parameter on the gender index, India lags behind both its neighbours. Consider this:
* Merely 12.2 per cent of parliamentary seats are held by women in India as against 19.7 in Pakistan and 20 in Bangladesh.
* India is also beset with a high maternal mortality rate of 190 deaths per 100,000 live births as compared to 170 pregnancy-related deaths per 100,000 births in both Bangladesh and Pakistan.

* In percentage of women receiving secondary education, Bangladesh at 34 per cent far outperforms India at 27 per cent.
* On labour force participation rate for women, Bangladesh is at 57 per cent, India is at 27 per cent.
* In all the above indexes, India’s performance is way below the South Asian average.
The only parameter where India fares slightly better is the adolescent birth rate, which is the number of births per 1000 women aged 15 to 19 years. A lower adolescent birth rate indicates a female population that is more in control of its choices when it comes to marrying and conceiving late.
On this scale, India’s figures are much better than that of Bangladesh as well as the South Asian average, though Pakistan’s record is marginally better than India’s.
UNDP officials state that over the last couple of years, India’s GII values have improved slightly from 0.61 to 0.563. This is mainly due to improvements in maternal mortality rate and women’s representation in parliaments in this period though other indicators have remained stagnant.
The HDR 2015, which is focused on the issue of work, also documents a global drop in female labour force participation rate, which is the proportion of working-age population in paid employment or looking for paid work. “This is owing mainly to the steep reduction for India, from 35 per cent women in 1990 to 27 per cent in 2013, and China from 73 per cent to 64 per cent in the same period,” said Yuri Afanasiev, UNDP resident representative in India.
According to Renana Jhabwala, national coordinator, Self-Employed Women’s Association, women’s workforce participation, by virtue of its invisibility, is largely under-counted in much of the government surveys.
“For instance, these surveys fail to capture details on large number of women in agriculture since land is in the name of the man. Due to this invisibility in official data, such women are often bereft of benefits such loans or seeds which the land-holding men are eligible for. This creates in India what we call a ‘sticky floor’ situation where a majority of women cannot rise above a certain level of earnings, skills and benefits. It is the opposite of the what the West refers to as ‘glass ceiling’,” said Jhabwala.

Thanks for admitting Bacha bazi is a huge problem in afghanistan, at least someone is speaking truth, as for rape in India, it is high yes, however, India is actually not even in the top ten list, where rape happens, Pakistan is actually ahead of India in rape percentage, the highest numbers are found in Africa/South America. So if anything those countries qualify as rapistan way before India does

Which third world countries doesn't these problems dont exist, show me any list where India tops any of those crimes, it doesn't.

Africa/South American rapes don't make world news. There must be a reason why Indian rape cases are creating headlines. India iis now automatically associated with rape.

Coming back to your favorite topic-bacha bazi. Bacha bazi also exists in every country bug it's being highlighted in Afghanistan I am highly sceptical about the percentages quoted. Child abuse is a lot more common than you think in Western countries and there is now a major crackdown as more and more celebrities are being implicated.

o please shut the **** up. a 13 year old who gets raped by 8 different individuals before her parents find out she is not in a safe environment is being raised by irresponsible parents. this happened in a country where people know that rape is a crime.
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE 9 YEAR OLD AFGHAN GIRL THAT GAVE BIRTH TO A CHILD LAST WEEK, IN A COUNTRY WHERE WHAT HAPPENED TO HER IS PRETTY NORMAL AND NOT CONSIDERED A CRIME?? is her pain not valid because she has a marriage contract saying the person who took advantage of her has the right to do that to her?? her parents chose for her to be taken advantage of. WHERE IS THE OUTRAGE??
at least in india, rape is a crime. in afghanistan what happened to the 9 year old is normal. it happens all the time and no one has a problem with it. at least none of you do. think and worry about that.

[Manzareh]

at least in india, rape is a crime. in afghanistan what happened to the 9 year old is normal.

It is a crime in Afghanistan to marry a 9 year old. Learn the law before you talk **** about it. According to statistics the normal age of marriage for girls is 16. 40% of girls get married after 18.

Also you are a vile excuse for existence justifying and sugar coating an atrocity of a 13 year old being raped by 8 different individuals by switching the topic of some other **** that happened elsewhere. Pathetic

india is a cesspool of problems.
i know you wont believe it but it is indians who are saying this.
in india crime is epindemic , they abort babies once they find out its a girl.
and if born they will kill her. offcourse i dont mean to say every indian is involved. it has to do with the view of females in desi culture.
