The dowry system will continue and will keep on creating menace in the society until the marriageable daughter refuses to get married by giving dowry.

I am agree with you, in these daughters are not a cow to whom parents hand over to any one. But it is possible only in cities. More than 50% population is living in villages and there education level is not good one. Key of all problem of these type is education.

Education is the basic requirement for putting across one's opinion. That means, education has no alternative. It is a must which broadens thought process and widens its usage. Putting all my emphasis on education to empower oneself, I would also stress that surrounding and the experiences of people have the ability to educate the rest of the citizens. So, if girls desire then the dowry system can come to an end by rejecting the proposals of marriage by the dowry seeker.

Good thoughts but sad because they may end up remaining unmarried.Dowry is too deeply entrenched in India to go away with such simple steps.

If girls start thinking beyond marriage , things would be better. One must marry not because of compulsion but because they want to and are ready for it and have found the right partner ..

It happening, in these marriage is not first priorty. Most of girls like to make her carrier before marriage. My daughter  also choose her carrier than marriage.

I am not financial strong, but I give best one chance of education which I can. My son is B.Tec (IT), one daughter is M.Com. B.Ed. and second daughter is M.Com, LL.B and now preparing for RJS.

Best of luck but one swallow does not make a summer.!!!!

I see that education has become the number one priority with majority of the middle class families in the south. The youngsters are focused and goal oriented which is a very positive trend .
