Marital relationship not only provides sanction to family life but also affects the life decisions and satisfaction of people in this bond. The ritual associated with marriage has direct impact on wellbeing of persons in this relationship. Although debates and discussions on child marriage and restrictions for widow etc. have brought legislations to prohibit such practices but still these are not completely eradicated. Hence, to make future free from such evils and to understand the marital satisfaction, it is essential to understand the perception of young people on the marriage rituals of their communities and also their expectations. This study focused on the perception on marriage rituals of tribal youth living in DoddaBiranaKuppe Gram Panchayat of H D Kote Taluk, Mysore district. Research has taken gender and educational qualification as factors to understand association of these factors with perception and knowledge of youth about marriage. Based on the finding and suggestions of community youth, study has emphasized the importance of counselling and education.
