Amongst non-married women, 35 percent reported non-partner physical violence and 3 percent were exposed to sexual violence. Such high prevalence rates are not only detrimental to women and girls, especially as survivors face long term health and psychosocial implications, but also it is a social and development concern for Bangladesh. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.askbd.org\/ask\/about-astha\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">Read more<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<h3><span
