I have some questions to ask to INDIANS. I
challenge you that you cannot answer. Try …..
I love my country. I am proud of being an Indian. But …
Why do
Indians expect more for their bridal daughters even though they expect the government should curb and control dowry system?
Though
the practice of dowry is publicly condemned, legally banned and morally
despised, it raises the status of woman in family. Dowry system is a crime.
Boy's family asking dowry is crime, but bride's family expecting 6 figure
salary is completely fine- I am not in support of dowry system. My father didn’t ask for
dowry from my mom’s family. My mom’s family didn’t ask for 6 figure salary, neither they ask for any high luxury
for their daughter from my father.
I got
married. We never asked for any dowry. Still I had my head in the sand because
I didn’t have a big salary. After a lot of rejections, finally a sweet
girl agreed to marry me living with her is easy because we get on like a house
on fire.
Note-
Dowry is indeed a crime. My point is- why nobody questions girl’s family
when they expect high salary, high luxury from the boy even when the guy and
the girl are of same standard? I am not asking anybody to get his daughter
married to a pauper, or a guy who is earning Rs. 5k only. But judging a guy
only based on amount of wealth is also unethical. There are many guys who earn
decent salary but get rejected because they are not damn rich. In India many
rich families marriages are happening according to Indian culture. So somehow I
should be proud of my country. I am trying
my level best. But I cannot accomplish it due to Indian hypocrisy.
