Dear Sirs/ Madams
I am in fix. I have two sons aged 30 and 33. Both are independent. Both are scared to get married. We have brought them up God fearing Good valued individuals. Some of their friends are married, most are arranged marriages and they are warning them saying the life after marriage is terrible. The girls now are not what they appear to be. For some of them marriage is a business. They get married and after few months or weeks they'll file case against the groom saying dowry harrasment and domestic violence. There after they are after the hefty alimony and share of the boys property. As the law favour them, the boys party ends up loosing everything including his parents hard earned money and property.
My query is that, is there a provision in Indian laws for a pre marriage agreement. Which states that, the boys do not take any dowry and the girls can keep all they brought with them. Like gold or so. In return the girl and her relatives will not ask for alimony or any consideration from the boys. If there is any child, The responsibility should be equal for both parties and according to the financial status of each party.
This the situation with most of their friends.
Greatful if you could advise me in the right direction.
Thank you
With best regards
Parmod
