Dowry is the wealth or assets that the family of a bride or wife offers her spouse in some communities when a man and woman bond through marriage. In India, whenever one expresses of sexual category discrimination, dowry mechanism could be seen as the trigger for issue. It is a common belief that a female is a burden and is to be married off someday, with a dowry burden at discarding, according the country's social infrastructure. Well, the birth of a girl is an initiation for common people for long-term plans to pay off the dowry. Seemingly, this preserving project hampers the girl's potential and limits her to a male child in terms of true equality. The current paper is an attempt to investigate dowry law in general as a social matter. It was stressed that the most successful solution is to bring knowledge through community and educational awareness against this evil scheme. In order to fight against the dowry scheme, there is also the need to expand women's education.
