Description

Domestic Violence Against Women: Beyond the Bruise – Tracing the Intersectional Tapestry of the PWDVA and
the Tryst for Equality is a comprehensive reference on the Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005
(PWDVA), built for advocates, judges, law students, and researchers working on domestic violence law in India.
The books first part traces the historical evolution of domestic violence law in India through 18 chapters –
covering the PWDVA’s legislative architecture, the contested “verbal and emotional abuse” standard, the
psychological impact of abuse, the “shared household” doctrine, live-in relationships, international law and
comparative frameworks, rural-urban implementation gaps, and abuse within elderly and intergenerational
households.
The second part collects 23 expert articles, including contributions from a sitting Madras High Court judge and
district and sessions judges, examining the Acts guiding principles, human rights dimensions, and ongoing misuse
debate.
The remaining sections provide the annotated PWDVA text with short comments, the 2006 Rules, allied statutory
provisions (CPC, CrPC, IPC, and their 2023 successors – BNSS, BNS, BSA – plus the Dowry Prohibition Act
and Hindu Marriage Act), relevant UN conventions, and curated case law.
