How did the dowry system start in India?
Have there been any measures taken by the government to eradicate the dowry system?
Yes, the Indian government has taken several measures to eradicate the dowry system, including creating a National Commission for Women, setting up helplines for women in distress, and promoting education and awareness about the negative effects of the dowry system.
