Dowry deaths, though illegal in india since 1961, remain a grim reality. The practice of demanding property or money from the bride’s family continues to fuel violence against women who are perceived to have brought an insufficient dowry. Often, these incidents are disguised as accidents or suicides, making prosecution challenging.This case underscores the urgent need for stricter enforcement of anti-dowry laws and a fundamental shift in societal attitudes towards this deeply ingrained practice. The fact that a child reportedly witnessed the horrific event adds another layer of tragedy to an already devastating situation.
