Dowry system is indeed a very serious problem in today’s era. Its still alive in the mind and heart of almost all the people. Even rich and high class society follow dowry system.. Rich people give dowry with their own consent and happiness and poor people are forced to give dowry. Every day many innocent women are killed because of this dowry system. Poor people are unable to give dowry so many times many crimes are done by the family of bridegrooms. They kill the girls….. only cases of poor people come into our notice because accidents and crimes take place in those areas only. Rich people are able to pay dowry so nothing happens with their daughters. So there are no murder cases in the rich class. Hence we think that there is no dowry system in rich class people.. its wrong. Dowry system exists everywhere…
Once a man in my neighborhood was searching for a girl for a girl for his son. I asked him which type of girl he wanted. He said he wanted an engineer girl. So I asked him how much dowry will he pay to the girl since she will be an engineer. He at once got shocked and said why should he pay the dowry when he is the boy ’s father. This poor mentality of people support dowry system.
In my opinion dowry system means selling of boys. See.. if the boy is well educated and doing a good job then they demand more money. If the boy is not doing good job or illiterate they demand for less money. Hence they take money and give their sons. This situation is same as a shopkeeper who demands more money for a good quality product and less money for bad quality product.
Today girls stand on their own feet. They are independent. Most of them don’t need any economical help from any one. So why they should pay dowry in order to get a man in their life????? Don’t men need women?? Can a man survive without a woman (wife)??? So why he demands for money when he himself can’t live without a life partner??? Why not men pay dowry??
So friends I want to say that dowry system should be completely finished… we all need to take small small steps in order to bring a big change.. Most of the women don’t raise their voice against dowry. They think that they will be insulted and no one will marry them after that. But why to fear?? What to fear of?? We just need to be bold. Just think if every woman will raise her voice against dowry, then there will be a revolution. They will obviously get a good life partner because no one can live single whole life… so they need not to fear that they will not get a life partner if they stand against dowry!!! There are many punishments for dowry seekers. So friends encourage everyone and raise your voice against dowry!!
