The crimes against women in India take several forms; the condition of Indian Women is quite contradictory in nature. The issue of violence against women grows increasingly urgent, statistics illustrating that violence against women is on the rise. Domestic violence against women is carried out in a domestic environment. To address the issue of domestic violence by providing for civil relieves with a view to ensure immediate and emergency relieves to women facing violence in intimate relationships. However the contemporary discourse on domestic violence can best be examined by looking at the range of studies that investigate the responses of institutions to domestic violence. the Supreme Court held in V.D. Bhanot vs. Savita Bhano t that it was with the view of protecting the rights of women under Articles 14, 15 and 21 of the Constitution that the Parliament enacted the PWD Act, 2005, in order to provide for some effective protection of rights guaranteed under the Constitution to women. Whenever controversy arises our government and judiciary come to help women by upholding the validity of special measures under Article 15(3) of the Indian constitution.
