Domestic Violence during Covid-19 Pandemic: The Case for Indian Women
Abstract
The covid-19 outbreak has raised the number of domestic violence cases worldwide. Social distancing, closures of essential community foundations, and several social restrictions have dramatically enhanced the risk of domestic violence. This study is focusing on the evaluation of pandemic-related registered reports on domestic violence in India. It has been seen that in India, women are the main victims of domestic violence which resulted in the mental health, and physical health of Indian women. Verbal and non-verbal aggression destroys women’s self-worth and affects them emotionally due to “domestic violence”. During the Covid-19n pandemic situation, lockdowns and domestic violence enhance sexual abuse and violence among women in India. As domestic violence affected Indian women physically, mentally, and emotionally, this incident even leads the Indian woman toward suicide.
In order to lead this study, the researcher has adopted a “primary quantitative data collection tool” to collect the raw data and information related to this topic. Depending on the survey process the researcher has completed it and evaluated the data through SPSS software. 51 respondents participated in the survey process and the respondents have chosen from all over India to get different perspectives on domestic violence. The search has carried informative information to meet the research objectives and present a valuable research paper. Incidents of domestic violence are enhanced in the response to lockdown orders and staying at home which needs a proper solution to manage the situation.
