Amongst the Lalungs some customs followed by them stress the important
position of women in society. Lalung religious rites that concern women
are conducted by women priests. A Lalung girl who remain unmarried or
a woman whose husband lives at her father's house inherits a share of
the paternal property. In the latter case, the bridegroom loses his right
to his own father's property. The Lalungs have embraced Hinduism and their
marriage custom are generally same as those of other Hindus, but there
is no Homa. Marriage within the same clan is not allowed.
