DOMESTIC VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN INDIAN PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

The biggest sorrow in our nation is the tremendous injustice done to a woman who gives birth, nurtures, moulds, and strengthens life, who is a transmitter of tradition and an instrument for preserving and transmitting culture from generation to generation. Age, colour, caste, socio-economic and political standing are irrelevant to her victimisation. Indian women's vulnerability takes many forms. Because of a woman's secret pains, she is easily preyed upon by male dominance and patriarchy. Women are victimised and oppressed by masculine members of society. As a daughter, daughter-in-law or wife, almost every Indian home must suffer from some form of domestic violence. Human rights apply to both men and women. This patriarchal culture discriminates against women. Women are so unable to comprehend their own rights and liberties. Hence, domestic violence not only harms women, but also slows down the country's This article discusses the numerous kinds of domestic violence against women in India, as well as the reasons and solutions.
