The Bride is Dowry

Greeting Readers! Why demand Dowry? Do you know about Dowry System? Today we'll talk about Dowry System keep reading...


Say no to dowry
 
What is Dowry System?
Dowry has become a curse for society. It is a social stigma. Common dowry is called that given by the parents of a girl in the marriage of a man and a girl, but now she is tarnishing and people from the groom's side are demanding TV, fridge, car etc..

 If the girl's father is unable to give them all, then they refuse to get marry or even if she gets married, the girl is bullied...        

 You must have seen that dowry goods are represented in many marriages. People are often shown how much dowry the groom has received .. The car, motorcycle and other belongings found in the dowry are also decorated .. 

 They are made to stand on the wedding Venue.. But no guest who came to the wedding took a picture of this stuff and complained to the police. None of the guests say that this is wrong... Most people are interested either in eating or in removing evils of marriage arrangements...    

✦ In India, the words of Fair and Very Fair are often used in the advertisement of weddings too. Most of the people living in India like to choose blonde life partner for themselves.  The color appearance of the bride and groom is seen as an obstacle in marriage.  

Relationships are also broken due to minor physical deficiencies.. Getting a clean colored daughter-in-law is still a priority for most families in India.  Obviously, with such a deep thinking, "A clean society cannot be built"

                            
 "Father of the Nation Mahatma Gandhi had said that whoever makes dowry a necessary condition of marriage, defames his education, his country and also insults the entire women's race" 

 Mahatma Gandhi had said this before India's independence, but see the irony that people of our country still ask for dowry and the notes they get as dowry, the same picture of Mahatma Gandhi's on that, our society transcends all limits of shamelessness in the matter of taking and giving dowry...

Say no to dowry
"Don’t search for a shareholder, select a life-partner"


 Birth of Dowry System:-
In ancient times King Maharaja and Dhanik used to give diamonds, gems, gold, silver etc. In plenty to their daughters in marriage... 

✦ Gradually, this practice has spread in the whole world, you must have heard the saying that "The guilt that society acquires also becomes a virtue" and there is another reason for this, in Indian society, women are being considered inferior to men..

✦ Section 498A "The Act against Dowry System" in India:-
The government has enacted a strict legal section like 498A to stop the dowry system. But many times this section is also misused. Asking for a dowry ruins the life of the girl..

But making false dowry complaint ruins the life of the groom and his entire family.  However, following the directions of the Supreme Court, now the police, by registering a case under sections like 498A. First investigates instead of taking direct action..

✦ Conclusion:-
✦ Both government and society will have to make efforts to stop dowry.  The government will have to resort to stringent legislation to stop this practice.  If the law follows this practice with truth and strictness, then success can be achieved.

✦ There is more public support than law, every public should not take dowry only then this practice can stop.  In this, people of the youth should come forward and they should voluntarily marry and present the ideal without dowry.

✦ Therefore, in the society in which brides are tortured in place of love, a campaign will have to be done to end this practice, whose slogan will be "Bride is Dowry" only then we can get rid of this leprosy of society...

"Say No to Dowry"

  15. Dowry is a social evil in the society, that has caused unimaginable tortures and crimes towards women. We always keep saying that dowry is a bad thing and we should stop this but we aren't doing anything to stop. Just by saying it won't make any difference. Now, dowry is one of a major problem in our livelihood and I hope it will end soon. Btw great topic again Riya 😊
