This book, supported by real-life case studies and expert legal advice, demystifies the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005, explaining its provisions in an easily comprehensible way. It also offers a stark look at the emotional and physical toll of abusive relationships, while highlighting the crucial role played by NGOs and activists in supporting victims.
