To what extent has legislation recognized the rights and obligations of family and kinship? What are the repercussions of the new ideals set by modern Hindu law and welfare services on marriage, family, and kinship of the Lingayats? The author interviewed 115 heads of the Lingayat households in Dharwar City. The findings reveal that the new legislation, incorporating the modem egalitarian values which are strikingly opposed to the traditional norms, tends to rupture kinship relationships. In the absence of comprehensive social security programs, an overwhelming majority of the people still depend on the family and kinship in times of crises.
