Dowry Value

Your value is = 

If you visited this page to calculate the appropriate dowry amount for you, then we suggest you to not repeat it in your real life. Its good to know your worth, but not in terms of dowry.

Let me tell you some facts about dowry and dowry related deaths in India.
  • According to Wikipedia, India is the country with largest number of dowry related deaths in 2012. The data is collected from Indian National Crime Record Bureau.
  • 18233 dowry related deaths were reported in 2012.
  • Out of every one lakh women in India, 1.4 die due to dowry. Pakistan tops in this case where this number is 2.45 in every one lakh.
  • Most of the dowry deaths occur by having poison, hanging themselves or setting themselves on fire.  
  • In every 90 minutes one bride is burned to death only due to dowry.
  • These facts are only those which are reported. According to a survey a number of cases remain unreported.
  • In most of the cases bride is not killed by tortured for dowry demand.
  • Dowry is the major reason for Female foeticide in India. Poor people don't want baby girls to get relief from tension of dowry.
Even after reading all those facts if you want to calculate your Dowry Value, then be ready to land yourself in police custody someday.
But if you are good enough to understand the above facts then try to remove this evil from India. Make your own life and marriage an example for others and motivate your relatives to do the same.
