In human society marriage is a very important institution which permit man and women in family life i.e. husband and wife. The Bodo has well established institutions of the marriage. No doubt, they are monogamous not polygamous. Polendery form of marriage is absolutely absent in Bodo society. Various rites and rituals have been associated in the marriage ceremonies of the Bodos which have been practiced since the time immemorial. In this paper a modest attempt is made to highlight and study the marriage system of the Bodos and associated rites and the rituals. In Bodo marriage is known as Haba which is a combination of two words i.e., Ha and Ba. Ha is identical to soil or Earth and Ba means to accept something on the back. So, Haba specifies to bear soil or responsibility of the earth on the back.
