The book is an in-depth study of Hindu law of adoption and comprises two original treatises - the Dattaka-Mimansa and the Dattaka-Chandrika.

The Dattaka-Chandrika, on the other hand, is a commentary on the Dattaka-Mimansa and provides further insights into the subject. The book explores the various aspects of Hindu law of adoption, including the eligibility criteria for adoptive parents, the selection of a suitable son, the legal formalities involved in the adoption process, and the rights and duties of the adopted son. It also discusses the social and religious significance of adoption in Hindu culture and the role it plays in maintaining family lineage and continuity. The Dattaka-Mimansa, And Dattaka-Chandrika: Two Original Treatises On The Hindu Law Of Adoption is an essential resource for scholars and students of Hindu law, as well as for anyone interested in understanding the cultural and legal traditions of India.
