The rise in domestic violence against women in India, especially in the pandemic and post-pandemic period, is an alarming issue that needs immediate attention. The dominant explanation for this emerging trend is structural inequality, internalized patriarchy, and misogyny. Previous studies have shown that factors such as the patriarchy of society, the hierarchy of relationships, the perception of women as housewives, child bearers and caregivers and the lower sex, the existence of norms that encourage violence in society, the existence of a model of violence. domestic violence in families is influenced by instability in relationships, excessive male power, poverty, preference for male offspring, alcohol and drug abuse by the male partner, and economic imbalance. This study attempted to identify the relationship between socio-personal factors and domestic violence against women. The study revealed that there is a significant relationship between the education level, caste, age, household income, family type and nature of marriage of the victims.
