What?s Wrong With Indian Girls Parents?

First of all this post does not apply to all girl parents but this does apply to many girls parents. If you are living in metro or mega city , if you belong to open minded family may be this post is not for you.Coming back to topic. One of my friend is well placed , single living in united states of america. NRI have always been in demand as far as marriage is concerned. But neither he , nor any of us knew that he was so much in demand. He was offered dowry of whopping 1 crore rupees!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yes you did read it right. No girl is not physically or mentally handicapped , neither she is illiterate . She is MBA , good looking girl and her father owns a company!!!!!

Sounds weird .isn’t it?. My friend has refused though ,since he is already in a relationship and is very much committed to that.

This brings back to main question. What’s wrong with indian girls parents?. Why are parents ready to give x,y,z amount to get their girl married?. Is it fear?. Humhaare baad iska kya? and is it that this fear leads to parents giving money or compromising on age ?

In northern belt and in some parts of western India , girls parents have typical dialogue. Hum Ladki Waale Hain. so?. Isnt the man’s life becoming better by marrying your daughter as much as your daughter’s life??. Is man and his family obliging you by marrying your daughter?

Marriage is a partnership venture and relationship of two equals. Isn’t it?. It is considered to be union of two souls. Woman , completes man and vice versa , so where doest this dowry or hum ladki waale hain comes into picture?..

I fully understand concerns of parents of girls , specially in our social structure. But empowerment of woman is the key. Dont sell marriage as dependent relationship. Marriage is best worked when it is based on mutual respect , trust , love and partnership. Marriage should not be means of livelihood or means of survival for woman.

Empowerment is the key.
