It is a common practice in many cultures around the world, and it is often seen as a way to compensate the bride&#8217;s family for the loss of their daughter.<\/p>\n<p>The practice of bride price is prevalent among the Kallars, a community of people who live in the southern Indian state of Tamil Nadu. The Kallars are a warrior caste, and they have a long history of practicing bride price. In the past, the amount of bride price paid was often based on the bride&#8217;s beauty, her family&#8217;s social status, and the groom&#8217;s wealth. However, in recent years, the amount of bride price has decreased, and it is now more often based on the bride&#8217;s education and her family&#8217;s financial situation.<\/p>\n<p>The practice of bride price has been criticized by some people, who argue that it is a form of female oppression. They argue that it is a way to buy a woman, and that it gives the groom&#8217;s family too much power over the bride. However, others argue that bride price is a way to protect women, and that it ensures that they will be taken care of after marriage.<\/p>\n<p>The practice of bride price is still prevalent among the Kallars, and it is likely to continue for many years to come.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[amp_mcq option1=&#8221;Kallars&#8221; option2=&#8221;Tarkhans&#8221; option3=&#8221;Gurjars&#8221; option4=&#8221;Bhatu &#8221; correct=&#8221;option1&#8243;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[44],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3632","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-culture","no-featured-image-padding"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO Premium plugin v22.2 (Yoast SEO v23.3) - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>In which of the following communities practice of &quot;bride price&quot; or &quot;bridewealth&#039; wealth&#039; was prevalent ?<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Bride price, also known as bridewealth, is a payment made by the groom or his family to the bride&#039;s family at the time of marriage.
