[471] The Mukeris form a caste and marry among themselves.

In their marriage ceremony they have adopted some Hindu observances, such as the anointing of the bride and bridegroom with turmeric and the erection of a marriage-shed.

They take food from the higher Hindu castes, but will not eat with a Kayasth, though there is no objection to this on the score of their religion.

They will admit an outsider, if he becomes a Muhammadan, but will not give their daughters to him in marriage, at any rate until he has been for some years a member of the caste.

In other matters they follow Muhammadan law.
