Quote of the Day


From this morning's Province:


"Indian police record one case an hour of brides being violently ill-treated by their in-laws for failure to deliver dowry.


The Practice of giving dowry, widely acknowledged as a social evil in India, led to the murder or suicide of 7,618 women in India last year."


The whole messy story, which involves local Surrey residents, can be read here.
