It's a little different here, widows are just like anyone else living here, with maybe a few extra financial privileges.
I can't imagine people still practicing Sati.... or holding anyone as a "possesion" ....that's sad.

Hi afzal, hope you and yours are well, friend. Here in the U.K, we have many different cultures of ethnicity living side by side, their customs and way of life for the most must differ a little. I am a non practicing catholic and speaking for them round my neck of the woods, most I know of, remarry after the loss of husband or wife. Though some choose a life as a widower, for their own reasons. Good luck
