NEW DELHI: While Delhi remains the country's crime capital, albeit a little less so with reduced incidence, the crime graph is rising in the IT hubs of Bangalore and Hyderabad, latest figures released officially show. In Bangalore, though the rise in IPC crimes between 2001 and 2003 was only 7 per cent in areas falling in the urban district, in the rural, the increase was a disturbing 42 per cent – up from 5,209 to 7,409. Between 2001 and 2003, Hyderabad recorded a 71 per cent increase in crimes under IPC, which include murder, attempt to murder, kidnapping, dacoity and bomb attacks. https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/articleshow/1050745.cms

here's a fact, last year 1,500 indian websites were defaced by hackers and as many as 1,687 sites were defaced in 2003. This is really grave!!!
