In a world aiming for equity and justice, the dowry system serves as a sharp reminder of the ongoing injustices that affect our society. Even though it is unlawful, dowry continues to harm the lives of many women and their families, fostering violence, prejudice, and misery.
Anik Mahila Samaj Kalyan Samiti is dedicated to eliminating this destructive custom and encouraging dowry-free weddings. We assist people affected by dowry-related concerns. We hope to establish a culture in which love and respect are the sole basis of marriage via education, activism, and direct assistance.
At Anik Mahila Samaj Kalyan Samiti, we are passionate opponents of the dowry system, a widespread social curse that devalues the dignity of women and families. We aim to eliminate dowry practices. These practices cause abuse, harassment, mental stress, and discrimination against women.
India's dowry system extends back to ancient times. It refers to any costly thing, such as cash, jewels, presents, or movable property, demanded by the bridegroom's family. This is a condition applied during, before, or after marriage. Dowry demands, despite being prohibited, continue to promote inequality and contribute to numerous family disputes and tragedies.
We raise awareness about the negative effects of dowry, assist victims, and promote a societal transition toward dowry-free weddings. We believe in women's empowerment and the development of marriages founded on equality and respect, devoid of financial transactions.
We hold workshops, seminars, and campaigns in communities to educate people about the legal, social, and psychological consequences of dowry practices.
We provide counseling services to victims of dowry-related abuse and their families. We aim to offer a safe environment for them to tell their stories and seek assistance.
We assist the victims of dowry-related violence and harassment to get help filing complaints, knowing their legal rights, and navigating the court system.
We campaign for governmental reforms and work with community leaders to build support for dowry-free marriages to shift cultural norms and attitudes.
If you are experiencing dowry demands or know someone who is a victim of dowry-related troubles, Anik Mahila Samaj Kalyan Samiti can assist. Contact us for assistance, direction, and intervention.
Anik Mahila Samaj Kalyan Samiti wants to build a society where marriages are celebrated without any kind of dowry. We believe that weddings are not about gifts and money. Instead, it is about the love two people share and their understanding and compatibility. Join us in our mission to end this practice and establish a society where women and men are treated equally and with respect. Dowry breaks a family! That's why we are here to help you and support your dignity.
