• In India, there are numerous laws against domestic abuse. The Dowry Prohibition Act of 1961 was the first law to criminalise the giving and receiving of dowries.

The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act (PWDVA) of 2005 is the most recent piece of legislation. Domestic violence is defined by the PWDVA, a civil legislation, to encompass physical, emotional, sexual, verbal, and economic abuse.
