The author describes the shifts within their marriages, remarriages and other kinds of unions and their striking diversities. An important contribution of the book lies in the unfolding of the role of women-led informal courts and their influence in conflict resolution. This takes place in a distinctly different mode of community-based arbitration against the backdrop of mainstream legal structures and male-dominated caste associations.
