Feminists, Come O! Dowry System In India by DZTech(op): 12:55am On Jul 03, 2020
wots ur take? cheesy
The dowry system in India[1] refers to the durable goods, cash, and real or movable property that the bride's family gives to the bridegroom, his parents, or his relatives as a condition of the
marriage . [2]
Dowry stemmed from India's skewed inheritance laws, and the Hindu Succession Act needed to be amended to stop the routine disinheritance of daughters. [3]
Dowry is essentially in the nature of a payment in cash or some kind of gifts given to the bridegroom's family along with the bride and includes cash, jewellery, electrical appliances, furniture, bedding, crockery, utensils, vehicles and other household items that help the newlyweds set up their home. [4]
Dowry is referred to as Dahez in Arabic .[5] In the far eastern parts of India, dowry is called
Aaunnpot .[citation needed ]
The dowry system can put great financial burden on the bride's family. [6] In some cases, the dowry system leads to crime against women, ranging from emotional abuse and injury to even deaths. [7] The payment of dowry has long been prohibited under specific Indian laws including the Dowry Prohibition Act 1961 and subsequently by Sections 304B and 498A [8] of the Indian Penal Code .

The Dowry Prohibition Act 1961 defines dowry: "Dowry means any property or valuable security given or agreed to be given either directly or indirectly - (a) by one party in marriage to the other party in marriage; or (b) by the parents of either party to a marriage or by any other person to either party to marriage or to any other persons;at or before or after the marriage as consideration for the marriage of the said parties, but does not include dower or mahr in the case of persons to whom the Muslim Personal law applies."
