Dowry Dispute: Governor's Family in Turmoil

In a shocking revelation, Divya Gehlot, the daughter-in-law of Karnataka Governor Thawarchand Gehlot, has accused her husband's family of dowry harassment, shedding light on a dark side of the influential family. Divya's allegations include physical abuse and a harrowing experience of being thrown off the roof by her husband, Devendra Gehlot, and her mother-in-law, Neeta Gehlot.

The couple tied the knot in a grand ceremony on April 29, 2018, in Ratlam, under the Chief Minister's Kanyadan Scheme. This scheme, a government initiative, aims to support brides from economically weaker sections by providing financial assistance for their weddings. Divya's marriage to Devendra, the grandson of the respected governor, seemed like a fairytale come true. However, behind closed doors, a different story unfolded.

Divya's claims of dowry-related abuse have brought the issue of marital violence and the persistent practice of dowry into the spotlight. She alleges that her husband and mother-in-law demanded a car and a house, and when she failed to meet these demands, the physical abuse began. The situation escalated to the point where Divya was allegedly thrown off the roof, resulting in a fracture. This incident has sparked outrage and raised questions about the prevalence of such practices within influential families.

As the news spreads, the public awaits further developments and investigations into this disturbing case. The allegations have cast a shadow over the governor's family, leaving many to wonder about the hidden realities behind closed doors. The incident serves as a stark reminder that the fight against dowry and domestic violence is far from over, even in the most prominent households.
