Abstract

The aim of the article is to explore the nature of domestic violence and responses to it among a cross-section of women who sought help at a Family Counselling Centre in Bengaluru. They were interviewed with the help of an in-depth interview guide for qualitative data. The women interviewees described their experiences, their reasons for staying on in abusive relationships, suffering violence at the hands of husbands and other family members, their future plans and the alternatives open to them. Interventions by agencies meant to help them have a vital role to play and must offer a wide range of services.
