In B.Sc textbook, section on dowry's merits sparks controversy | Q-Talks- E1

An image of a page from a book titled ‘Textbook of Sociology for Nurses’, by T.K. Indrani went viral on various social media platforms recently. It has been facing controversy due to its listing of the dowry system’s “merits and advantages”. Which included certain “advantages” that dowry is bringing to a family. It also mentioned that “ugly-looking” girls can be married off by means of dowry. The textbook also attempted to argue that the practice of dowry aids in girls’ education, and helps them in receiving a share of their parental property as dowry.
