Hello all:
I have been thinking about this for while and could not decide what would be better to say about the status of dowry. I have talked to a few people about this and got the different views about dowry. A group of people (which includes a fair number of girls too) insisted that dowry is a right of the girl to get from the parents but on the other hand there are people who think that the dowry is an evil being practiced in our society. Both sides have number of evidences and examples to prove their views. I have very clear, specific and strong view about the dowry for myself which I can not insist to enforce on the others. That is why I decided to bring this topic to the forum and get the idea of the folks in here. Please be specific and talk only on the pros and cons of the dowry other than cursing the society.
