Juvenile delinquency is a growing concern in India and worldwide, with increasing involvement of youth in serious crimes such as murder, theft, kidnapping, and sexual offenses. Events like the December 2012 Nirbhaya case have ignited debates on the leniency of juvenile justice systems in addressing severe crimes. Dermatoglyphics, the study of fingerprint patterns, offers a scientific method to analyze innate traits such as personality, criminal propensity, and psychological tendencies. This study explores the association between dermatoglyphic markers and psychological factors contributing to juvenile delinquency, particularly among adolescents in the rural and urban populations of Delhi. By integrating insights from dermatoglyphic research with an understanding of environmental influences, the study aims to establish a comprehensive framework for predicting and addressing criminal behavior. This review underscores the potential of dermatoglyphics in behavioral profiling, early intervention, and rehabilitation strategies within the juvenile justice system.
