For what shake dowry will be given? Let us compare man and woman education, salary, property, height and handsome/beauty.
How many women will marry boy without asking boy's above things that to women look high in everything?
Problem lies with women and women selfish expectations men start you too look for every thing equally. Let me bare 50% finance responsibilities. Many men doing house work too.

I am completely against dowry system. In ancient times, only men were working. But now both are working and earning. Apart from that after marriage she looks after her husband, children, treat husbands parents as her own parents, and do all household activities. So actually, dowry should be given to women for doing all these things. Around 65% of work has done by women, but what does she get?

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 many parts of India people ask for dowry and the poor people who can't give dowry they are always in worry and they do the marriage of their daughter in wrong and illegal ways. So dowry's demand should not be happen then the crime will be reduced. And people will celebrate their happiness for daughter as they do for son's.
Thank you.
Thank you.

Hi friends,
I also agree that dowry is integral part of India like olden days, in these days also 50% of people don't wants daughter because of dowry. People think daughters are burden because of dowry. So I think so dowry should be strictly band, because god has given you 2 hands, 2 legs and a mind. So use it and don't ask for dowry.

Men who doesn't have backbone asks dowry. Why, can't they earn of their own? The women are like burden to men now-a-days. You may know that, in olden days parents used to kill girls because they are considered as a burden since they have to give dowry. Actually men have to be killed for asking dowry not women. Dowry has to be banned.

About 70% of the population in India are indulge in practising these two things. Strong actions needs to be taken so that women can be protected after and before marriage. These women helpline numbers are working along with women police force, and ngos etc which are useful for securing the future of women before and after marriage.

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 .

I totally agree that dowry has become an integral part of India. But we have a false notion about dowry that it is restricted to the uneducated and the villages is our country. Most cases of dowry and bride burning are reported for the so called Elite members of our society. These people belong to the well educated class.
