These benefits of dowry mentioned in that book :-

1. Dowry is helpful in setting up a new home for the girls.
2. In some parts of India, there is a tradition of giving household items in the name of dowry, in which many types of things like television, fan, mattress, utensils, clothes, fridge, etc., even car motor is also given.
3. Education has spread among girls due to dowry, because if girls are educated, they will do jobs, which will reduce the demand for dowry.
4. If a girl is not beautiful in the eyes of the society, then she is married to a good boy by giving more dowry.
