उत्तर
Education is one of the most critical areas of empowerment for women. Offering girls basic education is one sure way of giving them much greater power of enabling them to make genuine choices over the kinds of lives they wish to lead. This is exactly what happened with Bholi. At first, Bholi had agreed to marry an old man because of her father's honor, thereby placing her family's interest over her own. However, later she refused to marry him because she saw how to mean, greedy and contemptible he was. By demanding a hefty dowry, Bshamber took advantage of her bad looks and the desperateness of her father to get her married. This is why she rejected the marriage and silenced everybody who called her shameless.
