Dataset · Law and Order
Cases registered under the Protection of Children from Sexual Offences (POCSO) Act, 2012 in each Kerala police district in 2026, up to September, with a row for the Kerala total (3,297 cases). The 20 police districts and the state-wide Railway Police are listed as on the Kerala Police page; six districts are split into a city and a rural police district, which carry the same LGD district code, so add them to get revenue-district figures. The page shows only the current year, so earlier years are not included; each yearly capture by PRI adds a year. Use it to compare POCSO case registration across police districts, for example per lakh children.
