According to the United Nations Population Fund Report, around two-third of married Indian women have been victims of domestic violence and as many as 70 percents of married women in India between the ages of 15 and 49 have been exposed to beating, marital rape or forced sex by their partner. In India, more than 55 percent of the women suffer from domestic violence, especially in the states of Bihar, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and other areas with low literacy levels.
