Dowry is always taken by the family of men from the family of women. It causes gender discrimination as only men are allowed by our society to take dowry but if any women asks then she don't have morals. This is why we can say that this society itself is responsible for all types of discriminations caused including this gender discrimination.

The dowry system is thought to put great financial burden on the bride's family.

 In some cases, the dowry system leads to crime against women, ranging from emotional abuse and injury to even deaths.  

The payment of dowry has long been prohibited under specific Indian laws including the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961 and subsequently by Sections 304B and 498A of the Indian Penal Code.

A court judgement clarifies the legal definition of dowry as

“Dowry” in the sense of the expression contemplated by Dowry Prohibition Act is a demand for property of valuable security having an inextricable nexus with the marriage, i.e., it is a consideration from the side of the bride's parents or relatives to the groom or his parents and/or guardian for the agreement to wed the bride-to-be.
