Dowry problem

What is Dowry ?Dowry or Dahej is the money, goods, or

estate that a woman brings to her husband in marriage.

The practice of giving Dowry is very common in the Indian and South Asian cultures.

The Function of Dowry

Dowry is a form of assurance that the bride will be well treated. If not, it can be revoked.

The History of DowryWe can date the history of Dowry as far

back as 1700 BC when the Code of Hammurabi was written.

This code stated that in the death of her husband or through divorce, the wife would receive back the Dowry that she paid to him.

Ancient Dowry

The initial role of dowry was to financially provide for the bride because she was moving into a joint family with the groom.

Women were not allowed to work and earn a living outside of the home, so dowry was suppose to serve as her income and her contribution to the home

A Twist on DowryAs times have changed, Dowry is now

considered a way for a groom and his family to extort money and gifts from the bride and her family.

Families often go broke because they are unable to supply the Dowry to the groom.

Majority of these women come from poor to middle class homes in which their parents save for years in order to provide Dowry to the groom.

Side Effect of dowry

Domestic violence

Roopa is a 17-year old victim of India's Dowry abuse. Her in-laws forced her to drink acid when she was unable to provide more dowry. Here she shows wounds from the damage done and she must now eat through a feeding tube in her stomach.

Dowry DeathDowry death is the death of young women

either by murder or suicide as a resort of inability to provide more dowry to her husband and his family.

The most common form of dowry death is “bride burning” in which the bride is doused with gasoline or kerosene and set on fire. This is usually done by the groom or his family.

These women committed suicide by hanging or poisoning because they could no longer endure the harassment and torture they were being subjected to by their in-laws and groom.

Role of Female in Our Life

We are born of Woman.

We make friendship with woman.

We are engaged and married to a woman.

We are bound with the world through woman.

There is none without woman.

“FEMALES” ARE A VERY “PRECIOUS ASSETS” OF THE WORLD

BECAUSE

“THEY CARE”

“THEY TEACH”

“THEY BLESS”

“THEY RULE”

“THEY EXPLORE”

“THEY STRUGGLE”

“THEY SACRIFICE”

Female Foeticide

A CENTURY AGO, BABY GIRLS

WERE DROWNED ALIVE IN A

VESSEL OF MILK AND KILLED AFTER THEY WERE BORN.

What is female foeticide Female foeticide are selectively aborted

after pre-natal sex determination

The evil of Feticide is not just restricted to economically backward classes. It is, in fact, the prosperous and the well-off families

THINK, WHAT WE RETURN FOR THEIR SERVICES

KILLING THEM IN THE “WOMB

”

Female Foeticid

e a Shame

on Indian

Society:

Pre-natal sex determination and female Foeticide is more prevalent in the urban:

DAUGHTER LOVES MORE TO HER FATHER- A STUDY

Think ?

Most of social problem is result of uneducation

But In this case higher education higher demand of Dowry..

& higher participation in female foeticide and domestic violence

Please don't be one of them Because We Make society , Society does’t make us

Thanks
