 No country across the globe is untouched by this very
problem

 Victim is boycotted by the society at large
 India alone registered 1,32,488 case of rape last decade.

6. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE
 Prevalent in huge part of India.
 Taking big and small cases of domestic violence into
account India shamefully leads the list of countries
facing domestic violence
 History has it that not only middle class but the upper
class also witnesses this problem
 Main reason behind this problem is low literacy level
and lack of financial status among women.

9. SEXUAL ASSAULT
 Harassment at workplace by fellow colleagues has
become so common that it has triggered women not to
take job especially in MNC’s.
 Ego factor plays a very important role in encouraging
sexual assault.
 Low level of women representation in big companies
triggers the percentage of sexual assault cases.

10. Honor killing
 These type of cases have mostly been seen in rural
India where biasing between communities still
exists.
 Khap panchayats are the reason behind honor
killings.
 Vote bank politics of politicians stop them from
taking action against these panchayats.

12. Steps to stop crime against women
 Rehabilitation of victim after the crime should be the
priority.
 Making and implementing laws to combat rising
percentage of crime against women.
 Capital punishment should be awarded to the accused.
 Faster judicial process is another way through which
crimes can be stopped EFFECTIVELY.

13. Steps to stop crime against women
(contd.)
 Making prostitution legal (it has worked in many
countries like Italy, Australia and e.t.c.)
 Giving women marshal art or self defense training.

15. CONCLUSION
 Violence against women and girls continues in every
continent, country and culture. It takes a devastating
toll on women’s lives, on their families, and on society
as a whole. Most societies prohibit such violence — yet
the reality is that too often, it is covered up or tacitly
condoned. We society as a whole need to tackle it
because we never know when our own family member
may get caught by this evil crime.
