Jabalpur is an ancient city of Madhya Pradesh. Jabalpur is situated at the center of India in the Mahakoshal region, beside holy river Narmada. The city received its name from Rishi Jaballi. Jabalpur is one of the most historical and important city among all the cities of India. Due to the native place of Jabali Rishi it is known as Jabalipuram. Acharya Vinoba Bhave titled Jabalpur as “SANSKARDHANI” due to its cultural and social activities. Jabalpur is surrounded by a spectacular variety of nature, at south-west of Jabalpur flows holy river NARMADA which has become a unique harmony. Marble rocks of Bhedaghat are surprising. It has a waterfall called “Dhuandhar” which is the symbol of dignity. Jabalpur is a city in the Mahakaushal region of state of Madhya Pradesh in India. It is the largest urban agglomeration in Madhya Pradesh and the 15th largest urban agglomeration in India as per the 2011 census statistics. The area of Jabalpur City is largest in Madhya Pradesh but is divided between different census towns and municipalities and is therefore considered to be the third largest city area wise in Madhya Pradesh. It is still counted as the third most populous city of Madhya Pradesh after Indore and Bhopal because a large population within the actual city is not under the control of the Jabalpur Municipal Corporation. The history of Jabalpur presents a saga of the ancient kings and the clamor of the battlefields. To begin with, it can be said Jabalpur finds reference in The Mahabharata as the ancient city of Tripuri. Moreover, Bhil and Gond tribes were the aborigines of the city, who depended on farming in the Narmada basin. However, the history of Jabalpur states that the the tribes were driven out of the territory by the Marathas and the Mughals. Moreover, the history of Avanti, the modern day Jabalpur, dates back to the 3rd century BC. Avanti was ruled by a number of kings belonging to various dynasties, viz. Sungas, Guptas and Harshas, until 8th century. The Kalchuri dynasty ruled Avanti in the 8th century. The Kalchuris made Jabalpur their capital. However, the rule of the Kalchuris came to an end when the Gonds came to the throne of Avanti in the 13th century. Gondwana Kingdom thrived in Jabalpur till the late 16th century.
Madhya Pradesh tops the list of states in the country when it comes to exploitation of minors, particularly girls, a NCRB report said.
According to the annual report of the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) for year 2009-10, a total of 4,646 cases of criminal nature against children were reported in the state.
