निष्पतिताप्रेतयोर्दुहिता भगिनी वा कुटुम्बं भरेत माता वा प्रतिगणिकां स्थापयेत् ॥ कZ_०२.२७.०२ ॥
niṣpatitā-pretyor duhitā bhaginī vā kuṭumbaṃ bharet mātā vā pratigaṇikāṃ sthāpayet
एखादी गणिका पळून गेली किंवा मरण पावली तर तिची मुलगी किंवा बहीण कुटुंबाचा निर्वाह करील; किंवा आई प्रतिगणिका नेमेल।
Continuity: the courtesan household is treated as an economic unit whose obligations and revenue flows must not collapse due to exit (flight/death).
It provides an institutional substitute to keep operations running when direct heirs cannot or will not maintain the establishment.
