The first possibility in this case will be that the case will be taken to the Court, basically, under Section 2 of the Dowry Prohibition Act, 1961. The first thing which you should do is to keep the people, who have witnessed all the ceremonies and conversations between you and the opposite party, ready to testify for you. Since Indian criminal law is more woman-centric when it comes to domestic and marriage issues, witnesses and evidence are the only things that can save you. Personally speaking, it would be great if you could find someone from the bride’s side to testify your truth. Once you are able to prove that the opposition’s claims bear no truth, you may sue them for:
In this way, you will get justice as well as monetary compensation for all the material as well as mental agony that you had to go through.
