Dear student,
Such questions need to be attempted on your own to test your creative writing skills. However, these points might help you elaborate:

 
- Dowry is the gifting of cash, gifts, valuables to the groom's side of the family by the bride's side at the time of marriage.
- It puts a lot of financial and mental burden on the bride's parents and relatives.
- The family undergoes a lot of stress in buying various things: car, bike, fridge, television, clothes, gold and diamond jewellery; sometimes cash and land is also gifted.
- In certain parts of India, marriages are fixed between families on the basis of dowry.
- If the dowry is found insufficient by the groom's family, they create nuisance.
- Often, the bride suffers humiliation, mental and physical torture.
- Many dowry deaths have occurred due to this evil practice: the bride is burned alive or hanged.
- The system of dowry has been prohibited by the government and is a punishable crime.

Dowry system is a social evil which has been practiced for long in India. In this system, for marriage, the girls family has to give money or other expensive things to the boys family.Dowry is transfer of property to daughter at her marriage. this is mainly done for the well being off the bride and for her bad times, if any arise. With such a general definition, dowry predates records of it!! Custom of dowry could also be found in Babylon, Greece, France, but modern time dowry system is concentrated in middle eastern, south Asian economies and North African economies.
