Karnataka records sharpest fall in spousal violence: What data reveals

Karnataka has witnessed a dramatic 30-percentage-point drop in spousal violence, falling from 44.4% to 14.1% of ever-married women reporting abuse. This significant decline, nearly double that of the second-biggest mover, Assam, positions Karnataka in the middle of the national distribution. Experts attribute this improvement to multiple factors including reduced child marriages and increased women’s empowerment.
