Dowry ban
October 15, 2020
After taking the historic decision of imposing a ban on dowry, Pakistan has become the first Muslim country to make dowry illegal. It is a great initiative that will ease the burden on families of a girl.
Now, the authorities should focus on launching awareness campaigns to educate the people that they should do away with this tradition of dowry.
