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.
