New Delhi: We often hear stories of husbands thrash their wife for various reasons, but the other side of the story is husbands too are persecuted in large numbers. So much so in India too that Indian women are ranked third in the world for abusing or beating their husbands. A study conducted by the UN in a couple of years ago (2016) has revealed shocking statistics of domestic violence on husbands. These figures indicate that domestic violence is the most frequent in Egypt, while UK stood second followed by India.
The survey states that wives used items like belts, shoes etc to beat their husbands up. It was also trending on twitter at that time.
Users commented that when a woman becomes a victim then the whole world stand by her, but the society turns a blind eye when a man is found to be on the receiving end. Husbands who suffer such abuse find no other way to defend them, knock the doors of law to save themselves from abuse and assault.
It may sound funny to some people, but India is third in this violence and it cannot be a matter of pride in any way.
