Kulinism (Bengali: কৌলিন্য) are Hindu caste and marriage rules reputedly introduced by Raja Ballala Sena of Bengal.[1] The name derives from the Sanskrit word कुलीन (kulina). Kulinism (higher social status) refers to marriage of a kulina girl to a man in the same class as well as marriage to one in a higher class.[2] It essentially asserts that a kulina woman must not have her status lowered by marrying into a group of lower rank. One's Kulin status remains valid for 36-years according to the rules stated by Ballala Sena.[3]
