Bholi’s father agreed to this marriage proposal because according to him she was lucky to get a well-to-do bridegroom who owned a big shop, had a house of his own and had several thousand in the bank. Moreover, he did not ask for any dowry. He was totally unaware of Bholi’s her pock-marks and her lack of sense. She accepted the marriage proposal because of her father’s pride. Later she rejected the marriage because the bride groom demanded five thousand rupees as dowry. Bholi’s father was pleading and humiliated and could give only two thousand rupees to Bishamber. She decided not to marry him. This tells us that she had self-respect and knows what is right or wrong and is able to take a wise decision.
