A large number of persons in India have been victim of domestic violence. Usually it occurs more to women. In our study, we have measured status of domestic violence among women in Jharkhand State. The main objective of my study is to measure the percentage of women who are victimized in various types of domestic violence and its comparison in respect to all India level. The relationship of the incidences of domestic violence with different socio-economic variables is also found. For this study, I have used NFHS-3 data of Jharkhand state and the sample size is 853 reproductive aged (15-49 years) married women. Background characteristics such as place of residence, women’s and their husband’s educational status, women’s occupational status and wealth index of the family are linked to domestic violence. Bivariate analyses are used to find the causes of domestic violence. Categorical logistic regression is carried out to predict the domestic violence with the selected independent variables. The major finding of the data is that occurrence of domestic violence is more in Jharkhand in comparison with India. The incidences of domestic violence are found to be very low among the higher educated men and women and richest families. It is also interesting to know that, among the professionals or service holding women, the percentage of occurrence of physical violence is very high compared to other occupational categories of women and this result is statistically significant.
