Gesture of kindness

Last Sunday , late evening I went to Gurdwara with some of my friends. Since I have never been into a Gurdwara so my excitement level increased manyfold.

Dowry ! will you explain me ?".unquote.Another gentlemen sitting with us explains him that Dowry is an Indian tradition in which groom asks for cash or in-kind to marry the girl . Japanese guy" ooh !! that's very greedy of men in India " I intervened in between and said " no, its an old tradition, nowadays in urban class it has been abolished and it's illegal in India now but yes the situation is grim in rural parts of India" [just tried not to portray poor image of our country] I deep down inside knew that yes ! The situation throughout the country is poor in the context of Dowry. As women and child development ministers has recently said in Lok sabha that nearly 25,000 Dowry deaths reported in last 3 year and maximum of them occurred in...
