MESSAGE

It gives me pleasure to present the annual report “Accidental Deaths &


Suicides in India” for the year 2015 published by the National Crime Records
Bureau (NCRB). This report is forty ninth in the series; first report having been
published in the year 1967. I appreciate the efforts made by the NCRB to bring

FOREWORD

I am delighted to present the annual publication ‘Accidental Deaths & Suicides


in India - 2015’. It is 49th edition of the report of National Crime Records Bureau, first
edition was published in the year 1967.

The publication contains comprehensive information on various aspects of deaths


due to accidents and suicides. An elaborate analysis on causes of deaths due to accidents,
inter-alia, traffic accidents; patterns & causes of suicides; distribution of profession, age,
gender, education, social & economic status of victims and means & methods adopted by
them to commit suicides. Besides, the report is also published with detailed data on
suicides & deaths due to accidents in Central Armed Police Forces. In this edition, efforts
have also been made to present compendious data on patterns & causes of suicides in
agricultural sector in a more elaborate way in co-ordination with Ministry of Agriculture
& Farmers Welfare and Ministry of Home Affairs.

I am confident that the report will be of immense help to all stakeholders


especially the Policy Makers, Police Leadership at various levels, Transport
Departments, Road Safety Professionals, Researchers, Academia, Media, NGOs and all
other stakeholders, as it fulfills a wide variety of data requirements and will help in
informed decision making for appropriate remedial measures and policy interventions.

I convey my gratitude to all the States’ and UTs’ Police Departments for
supplying the data to NCRB within the time schedule. Without their active support and
cooperation it would not have been possible for us to bring out the report within the
timeframe. I urge the Heads of Law Enforcement Agencies to supply the correct and
consistent data pertaining to the year 2016 latest by February 2017.

We look forward for your suggestion and feedback for improvement in content

Accidental Deaths & Suicides in India 2015 [iv]


DISCLAIMER
• The information given in this report is police recorded data which has been obtained
through State/UT Police. All precautions have been taken to ensure that the data is
statistically consistent. Since NCRB has only compiled and collated the data as
furnished by the States/UTs and presented these in the form of this report, NCRB shall
not be responsible for statistical error, if any, in the published data. However, any
discrepancy observed in this report may be brought to the notice of the Bureau.
• In this report, the calculated values of accidental rate and percentage share are rounded
up to only one decimal; hence an approximate value is used for analysis.
• Data pertains to the calendar year 2015(i.e. from January to December).
• The causative factors of accidents and suicides are not being captured by the Bureau.
• The classification of accidents and suicides has been done for statistical purpose only.
• The NCRB collects and collates data (numerical) from SCRBx/CID of all States/UTs
using 24 standardized proformae. The proformae is made available on our website.
• Comprehensive data on ‘Suicides in Farming Sector’ comprising of suicides committed
by farmers/cultivators and agricultural labourers in exclusive Chapter-2A have been
collected and published in consultation with Ministry of Agriculture and Farmers Welfare
under overall supervision of Ministry of Home Affairs, in order to present a
comprehensive analysis on suicides in Farming Sector. In previous edition, this chapter
contained data on suicides committed by farmers/cultivators only.
• In order to avoid data duplicity, unclassified categories of ‘Other Accidents’ have been
omitted this year.

LIMITATIONS

• Projected mid-year population for the year 2015, as provided by Office of


RGI/Population Commissioner, MHA, has been used for calculation of suicides rate for
States/UTs. However rough estimation of population of newly created States of Andhra
Pradesh and Telangana has been made basing on population share of districts of
erstwhile Andhra Pradesh State falling under respective States as per Population
Census 2011.

• Population figures of The Population Census 2011 have been used for calculation of
suicides rate in 53 Mega Cities for the year 2015 due to non-availability of projected
mid-year population for the year 2015 in respect of these 53 Mega Cities.
