India offers a rich blend of cultural heritage, natural beauty, and modern amenities, making it an appealing destination for Turkish travelers. With 2.7 million Turks traveling abroad annually, a portion may find India’s historic landmarks and diverse ecosystems particularly enticing.
India presents a mixed safety profile for tourists from Türkiye. According to the Global Peace Index, India ranks 114th out of 160 countries, which is better than Türkiye's rank of 137th. However, the murder rate in India is slightly higher at 2.9 per 100,000 people compared to Türkiye's 2.5. Notably, the female murder rate is significantly higher in India at 2.5 versus Türkiye's 1.0. In terms of organized crime, Türkiye generally has higher indices for various categories, indicating more significant issues with mafia groups and state crime. However, India has a higher rate of fauna crime and a lower score in human smuggling and arms trafficking. While both countries have their safety concerns, tourists should remain vigilant and informed about local conditions in India, just as they would in Türkiye.
