✴✴✴Dowry System✴✴✴
---------------------------------------------
The word ‘dowry’ means the property, valuable securities, money that a bride brings to her husband’s house at the time of her marriage.
▶Dowry is a form of consideration (in cash or otherwise) demanded by the groom or his relatives in return for marring the to be bride.
▶One of the worst evils of Indian Society is the dowry system. The custom of dowry is prevalent in all the sections of our society in one form or the other. At the beginning it was voluntary, but later on the social pressure was such that very few could escape from it.
The dowry at present is a source of both joy and curse in the society. It is also a joy to the husband and his relatives who get cash, costly dress and utensils, furniture, bedding materials, etc. But, it is a curse to the bride’s parents who have to bear enormous cost to satisfy the unreasonable demands of the bridegroom’s party. A demand of dowry does not diminish even after marriage. In some instances, the in-laws of the bride are very much ready to inflict harassment, insults and tortures-both mental and physical. It is often seen that, when more pressure is put on the bride’s parents, their dear daughter has no other option but to commit suicide to avoid more insult and torture at the hands of the members of her husband’s family.
