Which one of the following pairs is NOT correctly matched?

Select one answer
Answer and explanation

Correct answer C

"Ceremonies of Marriage - Dharma Sutra" is not correctly matched because domestic rituals and marriage ceremonies (vivaha samskara) are primarily prescribed in the Grihya Sutras, whereas the Dharma Sutras primarily expound civil, social and religious law. The other three pairs are correctly matched: Sapinda restrictions reflect the principle of exogamy, the Dayabhaga was authored by Jimutavahana, and the Mitakshara is Vijnaneshwara's commentary on the Yajnavalkya Smriti.
