Exercise increased caution
in India due to crime and terrorism. Some areas have increased risk.
Violent crime and terrorism occur in India.
- Rape is one of the fastest growing crimes in India.
- Violent crimes, including sexual assault, happen at tourist sites and other locations.
- Terrorists may attack with little or no warning. They target:
- Tourist locations
- Transportation hubs
- Markets and shopping malls
- Government facilities
The U.S. government has limited ability to provide emergency services to U.S. citizens in rural areas.
- These areas stretch from eastern Maharashtra and northern Telangana through western West Bengal.
- Due to the risks, U.S. government employees working in India must obtain special authorization to travel to these areas.
