Explanation

In Hindu marriage traditions, Prajapatya marriage is a type of arranged marriage where the father gives his daughter to a groom without dowry. It differs from other forms like Daiva (gift to priest), Gandharva (love union), and Paisacha (non-consensual). The defining characteristic of Prajapatya is the absence of dowry or material exchange.
