Description
Rao, Jain, Sachan, and Devjibhai measure domestic violence against women in rural Saharanpur, India in twenty twenty-four. Abuse at home harms women's mental, physical, and reproductive health. The team surveyed four hundred married women of reproductive age. Sampling covered the district's rural area over six months.
Twenty-one percent reported domestic violence. Physical violence was most common, then psychological, financial, and sexual abuse. Husbands were the perpetrators in seventy-nine percent of cases. Husband's age, education, and addiction linked to violence in initial analysis. In the adjusted model, husband's addiction and the woman's depression stayed significant. The authors urge stronger laws and measures that empower women.
