Even today, in most parts of the country, girls usually go to their in-laws after marriage and spend the rest of their lives there, there is also a corner of the country where the married girl does not go to her in-laws but settles in the son-in-law's house.

A small village in Kaushambi in Uttar Pradesh has this identity. Although the name of the village is Hingulpur it is known as the son-in-law's village. This village with sons-in-law has many other characteristics.

Minorities also adopted this method of Muslim majority population in the village. As soon as the daughters of the village are eligible to get married, this is an important condition in their relationship.

Hingulpur is not the only village. There is one such village near Narsinghpur district headquarters of Madhya Pradesh where sons-in-law reside. The village of Beetli is famous as the village of the Jamies. Most families migrated and settled here from other states. After this, in order to keep their daughters safe, the people of the village decided to keep the daughters in the maiden. 

Another big reason is that if the daughter is married away, all the information about the other family is not available. Sometimes the relationship is added with half-incomplete information.

This will not worry about his safety. Secondly, getting married in the same village, taking a tractor for farming, household work and taking care of children, both families help each other in misery and sickness.
