Youth are the future of the country’s progress and well-being. A socially adjusted youth is the most effective, peace-loving citizen for the nation as well as for the world at large. But it has been found that the youth of today’s millennium are moving towards socially unapproved attitude i.e., attitude towards violence. The present study discusses about the Attitude towards Violence in Students of different Educational levels. The sample size is 1150 Students of different educational levels studying in English medium of Greater Mumbai area. The Descriptive method is used to study the central tendency and variability and t-test is being used to describe and analyze the data. The findings suggested that there is significant difference in the different educational level students with respect to attitude towards violence and its dimensions. The t-test shows that boys are more inclined towards attitude towards violence than girls. Thus, educational institutions, family as well as society should take responsibility for developing negative attitude towards violence in the future citizens of the nation.
