Acid violence refers to the intentional use of corrosive substances, such as sulfuric acid, to harm or disfigure individuals, often targeting women. This form of violence is typically motivated by personal disputes, rejection, or societal pressures, leading to severe physical and psychological trauma for the victims. The act of acid violence is prevalent in certain regions, particularly in South Asia, where cultural norms may contribute to its occurrence. Efforts to combat this issue include legal reforms, awareness campaigns, and support services for survivors, aiming to reduce incidents and provide assistance to those affected by such attacks.
