Bride burning and dowry may look bad, but are an integral part of India.

According to me women is an integral part of our nation burning bride or dowry is not necessary but marriages are considered as pious in India so if marriage take place at a young age or among poor people they are bound to dowry system or evil practices like burning the bride after the death of her husband.in India there was a time when women were considered as holy and was given a prestigious place but after so much of advancement yet there is no security is provided to girls.it is a shame for the nation as without women the world will come to an end.

I think dowry make the girls families to go to an utter position. Actually if they are not able to pay the dowry for the girl ,they have to lend some money from others. After that for repaying that money most of the families are being suicided.

They are simply superstitions. They have to be eliminated. If they still prevail in the society , how can one say that women are given equal importance as men.



I don't understand why highly qualified girls also have to give dowry to even uneducated men. I simply oppose these bad evils. Let's destroy them , by non-co-operating .

According to my view,though these rituals are an integral part of our nation, there is nothing wrong to raise our voice towards social evils.As women are considered as most powerful creations of God,we must behave in such a way to make those words true.

In those days because of ignorance and lack of education,they followed these crucial practises.But right now we are enriched with knowledge and technologies.Also by many sense we are equal to a men.so we must be bold enough to oppose these social evils.

First here we need to understand what is dowry system, dowry was a belief in ancient time, that time women means to look after her family and her husband, woman didnt use to work so didnt use to earn money, So women were dependent on their husband, dowry was given to women so if anything mis fortunate befell to her husband and she left alone with her children then she can take care of her and her children with that money which was given in dowry, it was given for the security of women, sorry to say but people who are ignorant about the dowry system are making useless comments about dowry and the generous thought of our ancestors.



Today the meaning of dowry has completely changed because we have forgot our great culture and history today dowry means to extract money out of women's parents.



As far as sati system is concerned ,no where in Hindu scriptures it is mentioned that a woman has to set herself blaze after death of her husband,After the death of Pandu raja ,Kunti didnt becaome sati,after the death of Dastrath raja ,His not a single wife became sati.

Its not good to say as these are integral part of our culture. Our culture has given us a lot many great things bt its the human tendency to grasp the wrong given.

Its definitely not our culture. Its been made by some people or group for their purpose on the name of Indian culture.

So these ill evils must be definitely removed from the society for further development of the country as well as an individual.

The parents have right to give their wealth to daughter. Its gives security for girls after marriage. So the groom do not tell dowry, if the pleasure of the parents give as a daughter wealth then no problem.

Once upon a time,dowry may be for the security of women because women are not educated and they were dependent on their husbands.But now-a-days women are equally qualified as men and many are at a higher position than the men.Then why should one arise the question of security?

Now world has changed every woman's are growing well in their education as well in all fields. So they has the ability to standalone to look after their families. So dowry is not important in 2days world. When every woman's became educated. Wealthy accept dowry where poor they struggle. So dowry should not be compulsory.

We know sati is abolished. So we no need to discuss about that.

In my opinion dowry is something which is never / was never a part of culture of India. what i feel is giving gifts to there daughters at the time of marriage originated this and slowly and eventually it took the form we see today.

parents can give their daughters according to their financial status and wishes but dowry never was and will be an integral part of the Indian culture.

Talking about bride burning , it never was and will be justified in any of the civilizations or culture.
