Is bride burning for dowry,part of Indian culture?
I’m not Hindu, but I do have some Hindu friends. They say that bride burning has nothing to do with their dowry when they get married. It’s something that the mother-in-law initiates (it is illegal, but still occurs) if the bride’s husband dies. When the dead husband’s body is set on fire and is being cremated, the mother-in-law usually pushes the bride into the fire, killing her.
