The women have all along been a frail & feeble layer of every society. Violence against them, with a difference of degree (& intensity), has been a universal phenomenon. In the postindustrial revolution era, however, female folk (along with the young children) were drawn out of the four-walls of their homes & urged to work in industries as a cheap labour force. They were compensated by offering a legislative sanction of right to private property. This financial independence changed their vision & enabled them to fight for their socio-moral & legal rights. As a result, there has been a marked reduction in violence against women. But, unfortunately, the shadow of this menace is still lingering on. In this article attempt has been made to assess the state of violence in KPK province, Pakistan.
