The President of All India Kshatriya Mahasabha in UP's Baghpat, Thakur Kunwar Ajay Pratap, said that people may or may not give gold to their daughters in marriage, but a sword and revolver must be given. "If revolver is expensive...then give...katta," he said. This came after a Greater Noida woman was burnt alive allegedly by her husband over ₹36-lakh dowry.
