Yes. Any Indian wife and her relative can file 498a on her husband, his parents, sisters, brothers, grandparents, uncles, aunts, cousins, wives of brothers, and other relatives. 498a (dowry harassment case) leads to arrest without any verification or investigation.

Why should dowry system still continue in your country?

Dowry is the giving of money as lumpsum amount in cash, gold, or kind by the bride's father to the groom during their wedding. This is prevalent in India for generations.

The loan and its interest is mounting. It becomes imperative for this family to take dowry so that the money borrowed can be returned. Often while taking loan the money that will come into the family from dowry is figured in.
