Study Design: Cross-sectional descriptive hospital based study. 
Place and Duration of Study: The study was conducted among the postgraduate resident doctors and interns of Mahatma Gandhi Mission Medical College & Hospital, Aurangabad. The study was conducted from July 2021 to December 2021. 
Methods: A population of 100 respondents were considered for the study. Data was collected using a self-administered pre – tested questionnaire. The questionnaire included personalized questions analysing the violent experiences faced by them, the reasons behind patient’s violent behaviour and the consequences on doctors’ state of mind in the working environment. The collected data was studied and analysed. 
Results: Of 100 respondents included in the study, 64.3% were males, 35.7% were females. Most of the respondents were from the age group of 25-40 years (45.6%). 74% of all assaults took place in the Emergency Room, 15% in the Intensive Care Units, 6% in the Outpatient Department and none in the Operation Theatre Complex, probably due to security and strict compliance to bystanders entry prohibition.
