Solution

The correct option is A S2 is the situation related to dowry.
Dowry is related to the amount of money or property that a woman's parents give to the man she marries. But unfortunately in recent times, dowry has become more like a list of demands from the groom’s family. Hence, the second situation can be categorised as dowry.
