Why The Percentage Of Muslim Prisoners In India’s Jails Is Disproportionate to Their Population In India
Muslims account for 14.2% of India’s population, but more than 19% of inmates across India’s jails. A combination of factors has kept it that way for years: Lack of opportunity, poor education; police prejudices leading to false cases; low representation of Muslims in the police force; inadequate or absent legal aid.
