उत्तर

The Extended family is often seen as symptomatic of India.

Explanation:

An extended family (commonly known as the ‘joint family’) can take different forms, but has more than one couple, and often more than two generations, living together. This could be a set of brothers with their individual families or an elderly couple with their sons and grandsons and their respective families. The extended family often is seen as symptomatic of India.
