What problems are increasing in Meerut?

Every civic news report geolocated to Meerut, classified into an open problem vocabulary, and trended as a share of the city's total coverage.

Summary

Violence remains Meerut’s defining civic burden, even though its slice of local news shrank by 1.5 points. Homicide took a bigger slice (up 3.10 points), while road safety edged up 0.3 points. The deadly building collapse makes that mix of crime and physical risk painfully concrete.

WATCH Watch whether rising homicide, fires and road danger prompt visible prevention, not just policing.
