Wondered why that girl did cancel her wedding? Let us explain you clearly, the girl named Remya Ramachnadran who had engaged to a guy cancelled her wedding as he and his family demands Rs 5 Lakh and gold as dowry.
Infact, as we all know taking or giving dowry in India is against law under the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1962. But, no one in India cares about that. Instead, they will give it publicly because if not it would be a great shame to their family.
To protect their family values they give and take dowry. But the brave and courage Remya took Facebook and shared her feelings on Dowry,” Friends,
Here is an announcement for people asking me about my wedding day. The person, who before the engagement, used to say that he needed just me, is now demanding Rs 5 lakh and 50 sovereigns of gold. Since I am completely against dowry and believe it will be a losing proposition to buy into a family that cannot keep its word, I have decided not to go ahead with this alliance. Thank you. Remya.”
With her message in FB many of them shared and n no of people supported her. "I would like to explain that it was my declaration of a decision. Never had an intention to hurt anyone specifically. Please don't use my post for personalized humiliation, instead use it against our social norms.”
Anyways, she had created a positive vibe in the society at least by this people should stop taking or giving dowry.
