All parents should say No to dowry.

I has become extortionary in some cultures. Which may give the man a sense of ownership and potentially leave the woman vulnerable to violence. The law should consider capping or abolition of this tradition in some societies.

Ashkul, the answer does include gifts and also does not specify what type of property, which I assume you thought to be land property. Answer is very much adequate.

Ashkul
Dowry is not compulsory. sometimes other gifts like TV, fridge, Bike is also given. Giving property is not compulsory. hence your answer is wrong

Can be bribe, if you think about parents wanting to get rid of their mischievous daughters 🙂
