Re: rishta “signs”?
Sometimes MILs want a working bahu so that she can support the responsibilities of their sons. If the sons’ income is not sufficient, or if they have other responsibilities like they need to contirbute towards their sisters’ marriages, MILs look for working bahus. I myself had been getting proposals where the moms asked whether I was working and they would want me to continue working after marriage because dono saath kamain gey tau guzara hoga. Such MILs sometimes put a condition on girl before marriage which is pathetic.
Why would MILs NOT leave the choice of working or not working upto their DILs? DILS should obviously consult and discuss the issue with their fiance/ husband and then decide whatever they both think best for themselves and their future family.
