Caste and kinship are closely interconnected institutions in Indian society, shaping patterns of social organization, marriage, inheritance, and everyday interaction. Kinship provides the network of relationships based on blood, marriage, and descent, while caste determines the social boundaries within which these relationships are generally formed and maintained. Marriage is the most significant link between caste and kinship. Most castes follow the principle of endogamy, requiring individuals to marry within their own caste or sub-caste. At the same time, kinship rules regulate prohibited and preferred marriage partners, such as clan exogamy or cross-cousin marriage
