‘Mitakshara’s influence on Hindu personal law still resonates in India’s modern legal system’

“The Mitakshara is not just a mere compilation of rules and statutes but it is a philosophical and social system that played a fundamental role in shaping familial and societal structures of regions of India,” judge of the High Court of Karnataka E.S. Indiresh has said.

He was speaking at the valedictory session of the one-day national conference on “Mitakshara: Applied Science of Bharatiya Jurisprudence” at the Central University of Karnataka (CUK) here on Saturday evening.
