We live in our society. It is made up of different castes and sub-castes.
There are different traditions and cultures. Some of the traditions are good, but not all of them. Dowry system is one of the social evils which is in practice till now. Dowry is the property or money given to the bride to take her husband’s house when she gets married. This evil system is especially practiced in the Terai of our country.
Nowadays, dowry is a major factor when someone gets married. The bridegroom’s family proposes the amount of dowry. And if the bride’s family agrees it, the marriage program is organized. But the dowry should be given on the day of marriage ceremony. The bridegroom can deny the marriage if he does not get decided dowry. It is the worst aspect of this system.
Bride’s parents want their daughter to have a prosperous life. They want to support her economically. They certainly love their daughter. But in dowry system, the money and other things are not given to her for her happiness; rather they are given to make the bridegroom agree to get married to her. Nowadays, the bridegrooms demand more property from the bride’s family. Thus, this social evil has commercialized marriage contract and conjugal life.
This system is certainly disadvantageous. Firstly, the relation between brides and bridegrooms cannot be sound. The bridegrooms treat the brides badly if they think the given dowry is not enough. We can see and hear many crimes connected to the issues of dowry. Some brides are badly beaten by their husbands. They urge their wives to bring additional property. Unfortunately, the struggle between the bride and bridegroom destroys their entire life. Many newly married women are compelled to abandon their husband’s house. This system often invites fatal disasters in the conjugal life. Some of the newly married women are compelled to abandon their husbands house. This system often invites fatal disasters in the conjugal life. Some of the newly married women are murdered by their husbands as the result of dowry system. What a savage brutality!
Nowadays, this system has been developed as the source of earning property for unmarried males. Many good girls cannot get good husbands if their parents are not well off. The bride’s families feel that they have bought the boys for their daughters. The boys are treated as the goods of the market. Newly married spouses cannot be reapportioned with each other. Therefore this system should be either eradicated or reformed.
I think that this system should be banned by law. All the educated girls and boys should discourage and avoid this system when they get married. The parents of the girls should educate their daughters properly., if the girls are educated, they can find good husbands themselves. At any cost, this system should be wiped our for a well-cultured and civilized society.

The dowry system has rooted deeply in the Indian society. We daily see many cases of dowry victims in the columns of the newspapers. The meaning of the 'dowry' is the property either in cash or in any other form which a woman brings to her husband at the time of the marriage. It is a kind of assistance given to the newly wedded-couple from the bride's parents to start a fresh life in the new setup. But it has now become a great social evil. This most cursed system has ruined many families. Many parents have lost their daughters.
Giving a dowry is a very old custom. Even in the past the parents of the girl have been giving dowry in the form of gifts. But in the present scenario it has become one of the biggest evils of the society. Perhaps this is the reason that marriages for millions of families have become a financial burden. The daughters are not welcomed by most of the Indian parents. If a family has more than one daughter, it means it will hardly come out of the debt. This happens because the bride's family has to provide the most lavish wedding for their daughter.
Now-a-days the size of a dowry depends on how much education the groom has and what is his income and social status. This matters because the more education and income the man has the bigger the dowry he can ask for. In such situation if a girl's father has much money then there is no problem. The girl will get a suitable match.
In case the father is not earning much he finds it difficult to give a suitable match to his daughter. It results in a compromise marriage.
Sometimes it is the greed of the grooms and their parents which makes dowry system a serious. The more dowry the bride brings with her the more demand is being made by her in-laws. As such if she fails to fulfil her in-laws' greed she is ill-treated, misbehaved and sometimes burnt. There are many cases of suicide due to this ill-treatment.
Dowry is such an evil which spreading like AIDS and cancer in our society. Though Government has strict laws against it but to no purpose. It is because people don't care.
But it is duty of all enlightened citizens of our country to fight out this evil. We must rid our society of this curse. In this regard the youths of the society can be of great help. They should come forward and start a massive campaign for rejecting and socially boycotting the people accepting the dowry. If this is not done, serious consequences are likely to affect our society. It fills our heart with pity to think that there are such cruel people in our society. They are not humans but killers.
To solve this problem parents should make their daughters bold and self-independent by giving them higher education. Thus every effort should be made in order to uproot this evil otherwise girls will always be sufferers.
