Rise in domestic violence because of Covid-19 lockdown:- 



About domestic violence in India:- 

  • The first week of the nationwide lockdown, which has left many facing job losses, uncertainty over salaries, forced isolation and stressed households, has resulted in a steep rise in violence against women. 
  • The National Commission for Women (NCW), which receives complaints from across the country, has recorded a more than twofold rise in gender-based violence.
  • The total complaints from women rose from 116 in the first week of March (March 2- 8), to 257 in the final week of March (March 23-April 1).
  •  Complaints of rape or attempted rape have risen sharply from two to 13, while cases of domestic violence have increased from 30 to 69 over the same comparative period.
  • Simultaneously, there has been an almost threefold increase in police apathy towards women’s complaints with the NCW receiving 16 complaints on the issue as compared to six earlier, as the police are busy enforcing the lockdown to curb the spread of COVID-19.

Some overview of the domestic violence act passed on 
2005 :- 
Domestic Violence Act 2005, over the last 10 years, the rate of decline of prevalence of spousal violence against women has remained low in India. This study attempts to explain the experience of spousal violence using a social-ecological framework. We analyzed the National Family Health Survey 2015 to 2016 (NFHS-4) data of 66,013 ever-married women aged 15 to 49 years. Participants in the domestic violence module of the NFHS-4 reported their experience of violence committed by their husband within the 12 months preceding the survey.

Five things we can do to reduce domestic violence:- 
  1. Keep trying prevention programs, scale up the most promising ones, and study how well they work.
  2. Make penalties for domestic violence consistent and firm.
  3. Increase funding for support services.
  4. Change the way family courts handle cases involving domestic violence.
  5. Help women to be economically independent.
