Recently, there is a controversy over a book of Nursing Schooling Celebs. In fact, in the ‘Textbook of Sociology for Nurses’ written by senior author TK Indrani, such objectionable things have been written on the practice of dowry, which is being fiercely debated. In fact, this book explains the merits of dowry, saying that parents can get their “ugly and handicapped daughters married” with the help of dowry. In the changing times, people are fiercely taking classes on social media regarding such thoughts of an author. If we talk about dowry, then in any way the practice of dowry cannot be considered right. We are telling you such reasons, which show that both taking and giving dowry is wrong. Dowry Prohibition Act 1961 (DOWRY PROHIBITION ACT 1961) has made both taking and giving dowry a crime. At the same time, socially it is also considered a bad practice.
consider girls a burden
Even today, when girls are born, they are considered a burden because as soon as a daughter is born, the parents start worrying about dowry, not her education. They feel that money will have to be added for their marriage from today itself. Coming under the stress of dowry, they do not spend on the education of girls, but start saving money for their marriage.
father’s debt
Now there are many such cases in which the father gets into debt in order to collect the dowry amount. In such a situation, if someone has two or three daughters, then the worry of marriage of daughters on them increases even more. In such a situation, setting up someone’s house by drowning someone in debt cannot be considered right from anywhere. Dowry is just a cruelty.
discrimination and humiliation
It is a bitter truth that when a daughter is born in someone’s house, more neighbors and relatives start getting troubled than the family members. If a girl is born for the second time in someone’s house, then society starts looking at the girl and her parents with discrimination. They are made to feel helpless and helpless at every step. Due to all this, the parents of the daughter start getting mentally disturbed.
kill your little desires
Many parents come under societal pressure to kill their trivial desires to add dowry money. Even the poor to middle class families start reducing their needs. There is always mental pressure in his mind regarding the marriage of daughters and dowry. Think! How many compromises do the parents of daughters make with their lives to give dowry?
start of humiliation
Dowry means not only money but also expensive things, for which the boys put pressure on the girls to take it. It is also considered as a measure of respect, that is, who can give more dowry, only that girl or family is entitled to respect and who is unable to give dowry, is considered less in respect of respect. In many places, girls are physically and mentally abused even after giving dowry in educated homes. Therefore, dowry itself does not guarantee that people remain happy after giving or taking it.
