Evils Of Dowry System

We always hear the story that a bride is very beautiful and educated in spite of this she brings the cash and essential household goods with her. At that time the bride’s family feels very happy and proud that they have given every thing to her daughter according to their means by taking loans. You think that you have done a good job by satisfying your relatives by giving them necessary money and belongings. At time say after 6-8 months the groom family put in some more demands. But you have kept flesh of meet in the lion’s mouth and now you are expecting that he will not eat the same. Every body accepted the fact that Indian women are most traditional and faithful wives but is it correct to torture them for the greed of dowry? In 1974 the dowry victims were 3-5% and now it has becomes 25-30% and still rising day by day. The 35 % cases are of dowry that daily registered in the police files. Even though the women are top ranked in the world their condition is quite miserable. There are various campaigns that are organized in India and outside in which the youth has taken the oath that they will not give or take any thing in the name of dowry. All these movements become nominal as the dowry system is still prevalent and has become a token sign of the prestige and fashion.
