The ones nobody counted.

A rape is reported in India every 18 minutes. Most are never reported. Here they get counted, anonymously, and the system is held to account.

86

never asked anyone for help.

Only about 14 in 100 women who faced physical or sexual violence sought help of any kind. The other 86 are in no record.

NFHS-5 · 29% of married women 18–49 report spousal violence
97%

knew the person who raped them.

Not a stranger in a dark lane. In 28,915 of 29,670 registered rapes, the offender was known to the survivor. That is why silence is so heavy.

1 in 4

rape trials that finish end in a conviction.

The rest: acquittal, discharge, collapse. Survivors are told that is their failure. It is the system’s record.

NCRB · about 27% in 2022, about 24% in 2023
46%

of new Fast Track cases were closed in 2025.

1,43,936 rape and POCSO cases filed; 66,500 disposed. Pending: 2,45,579, up from 2,04,122.

91%

of cases in court are still waiting.

Court pendency for crimes against women: 23,03,657 cases, 90.8% of everything in trial. Every one is a person, waiting.

The pulsing dots are the ones nobody counted.

You can’t un-see this. You can do something with it — in ten seconds.

Real Count · anonymous

Never reported? You still count.

Official numbers only include what survived a police station. Every tap here is someone the statistics missed. Nothing identifies you. You decide how much to add.

One tap. Nothing else needed.

If something happened to you — assault, abuse at home, dowry harassment, stalking, anything — and it never made it into a police record, tap below. You become one more number the system can no longer pretend isn’t there.

Not a police reportThis counts you. It doesn’t file a case. Need help now?

What happened?

Pick the closest one. You can skip anything after this.

When and where?

State only — never a street, town or place.

Who did you tell?

Pick all that apply.

Why did it stay uncounted?

The most important question — it shows where the system fails. Pick all that apply.

Anything you want the country to read?

Who was it? (a category, never a name)
Your age then (optional)
Do not name anyone — not you, not the accused. A person checks every word before anything is shown, and removes anything that could identify anyone.

You are counted.

Thank you. What you just did is a data point a police station, a court or a politician cannot quietly erase.

Numbers are self-reported and unverified. They show a gap — they don’t replace court records. How we handle this.

Who is your MP — and what did they swear?

Type your pincode. See your MP’s photo, party, how they won, and the cases they declared on their own affidavit. Sixteen sitting MPs have crimes-against-women sections on record: 10 BJP, 6 from five other parties.

Don’t just feel it. Do it.

Four ways to act, from ten seconds to a weekend.

10 seconds

Put one number in someone’s feed.

Every card has its source. Silence spreads faster than facts — so spread the fact.

Open the reels →
1 minute

Take the pledge. Then write to your MP.

Three promises, no sign-up. Then a ready-made letter that asks your MP for the numbers they’d rather not say.

10 minutes

Start one honest conversation.

Three questions for a friend, a sibling, a group chat. Copy them, send them, and see what comes back.

A weekend

Ask your campus, society or police station three things.

1) Is our Internal Committee’s name and number public? 2) Does the local station have a women’s help desk, open 24×7? 3) Are 112 and 181 displayed where people can see them? Write down the answers. Send them to us.

The first minute matters

When someone tells you.

Most survivors tell a friend before anyone else. What you say decides whether they ever tell anyone again.

Say“I believe you.”
Say“It’s not your fault. Nothing you did makes this okay.”
Say“What do you need from me right now?”
Say“You don’t have to decide anything today.”
Don’t say“Why didn’t you tell someone sooner?”
Don’t say“What were you wearing / doing / drinking?”
Don’t say“Are you sure? Think of the family.”
Don’t say“Let’s keep this between us and settle it.”
