The objective of this study is to study the perceptions of female students towards the Rani Lakshmibai Self-Defense Training in Bundi district, Rajasthan. In the current context, the safety, self-reliance, and empowerment of girls have become crucial issues. In light of the changing social environment and increasing challenges, equipping female students with self-defense skills has become essential. Self-defense training programs are playing a vital role in achieving this objective. The present study is based on 400 female students in Bundi district. A self-designed perception questionnaire was used to collect the data and analyzed using a percentage method. The results revealed that most female students have a positive attitude towards this training. This training is proving effective in strengthening female students' self-confidence, courage, and sense of security. Therefore, it can be said that the Rani Lakshmibai Self-Defense Training Program needs to be further strengthened.
