Answer:

Explanation:

Sati, also spelled as Suttee, is a practice among Hindu communities where a recently widowed woman, either voluntarily or by force, immolates herself on her deceased husband's pyre. The woman who immolates herself is, hence, called a Sati which is also interpreted as a 'chaste woman' or a 'good and devoted wife'.

The ancient Hindu tradition called 'sati' (or 'suttee'), wherein a widow would burn herself to death on her husband's pyre, was initially a voluntary act that was considered to be quite courageous and heroic, but it later became a forced practice.
