Summary[edit]

Description
English: The map shows the incidence rate of riot complaints filed, per 100,000 people, in each state and union territory of India, in 2012. Higher number (stronger color) means either more riots in the year or more people affected by riots in that year or both.

The crime of riots is defined and covered by Sections 143-145, 147-151, 153, 153A, 153B, 157, 158 and 160 of Indian Penal Code. It is also referred to as communal violence by Indian authorities.

Kerala reported the highest riot incidence rate in 2012, while Punjab and Meghalaya reported zero riot incidence rates.
