@Yudishthir

Thanks. Anyway, he is quoting "genuine" sources like manusmriti and dalitstan.org. So only some commonsense is required.

No, I use "not so genuine sources" like Vedas too

Here is Vishnu Samriti
Now the duties of a woman (are) ... After the death of her husband, to preserve her chastity, or to ascend the pile after him.
Vishnu Smriti, 25-14

Here is Rig Veda
Let these women, whose husbands are worthy and are living, enter the house with **ghee (applied) as collyrium* (to their eyes). Let these wives first step into the pyre, tearless without any affliction and well adorned.*
(RV 10.18.7)
