Abstract
The concept of dowry system dates back to the ancient Roman and Greek Civilization, (Anderson, 2007). Historically, some areas of Europe, America, East and South Asia have been victimized by the custom of dowry. With progression and modernization, there has been a significant decline in the importance of dowry system in many societies. On the other hand, India is facing dowry inflation since the last five decades due to the customs and tradition that are deeply rooted in their society, (Anderson, 2003).
