    I really feel sad for the guy. Girls and their parents are taking undue advantage of the dowry law now a days. I know personally a couple of guys who were unfairly sued by the wife and in laws and had to spend huge amounts of money to get out of the legal mess.
    Now a days, boys are scared to get married because of this law as they have to be very wary of the credentials of the girl and her parents
    It is high time the law is amended suitably to give a chance to the boys to prove their innocence. It is the financial independence which is giving the girls this sort of unnecessary boldness

    simple go for pre nuptial contract to avoid such things from happening. Assamese or arunachalis don't take or give dowry so well Soumyo is safe. :-P

    This is what the main problem in India is. You are guilty until proven
    innocent. In the US as you might know it is innocent until proven guilty.
    In India you are guilty as soon as the FIR is filed and you are labelled
    'accused' which for all practical purposes is considered guilty.

    the only change should be that if there are false accusations and it
    is proved then the accuser has to spend the same amount of time
    prescribed for the offender.

    pre-nuptial is irrelevant in this case. they can invoke the dowry law
    whether you have prenup or not or whether you actually demanded
    dowry or not.

    you know you can still complain that Soumyo asked for dowry and the
    cops will take your word and arrest him?

    The dowry concept is a derivative of the Mitakshara HUF (Hindu Undivided Family) prevalent in other parts of the Country where traditionally the right to property used to pass on to the Male heirs only.

    However, in Bengal and Assam the Dayabhaga HUF system is prevalent where even traditionally property used to get distributed among all heirs, male or female.

    And in many part of NE, its a matriarchal society.

    The main problem of Indian Anti Dowry Law is that for the first seven years after marriage, in case of any complain by the girl or her family, the onus is on the boy/his family to prove that they are innocent.

    You are missing the point entirely, it has nothing to do with money.

    If Soumyo has an affair and you want to get back at him, you can
    invoke a dowry case and no questions asked, he will be put in jail.

    All men are not Gabbar singh. There are heavenly creatures among men too. And such one sided laws will make their life miserable. But we must not forget that such laws are devised for the real needy who actually married a Gabbar singh.
