Aghaghia, Rahimzadeh (October 2020). "Fraternal Polyandry and Land Ownership in Kinnaur, Western Himalaya". Human Ecology. 48 (5): 574 – via Proquest.

This is a secondary source from 2020 discussing fraternal polyandry in India. It focuses mainly on Kinnaur, but also gives an overview of the practice in the entire Himchal Pradesh region of India. The Kinnaur section in the current Polyandry in India page is lacking any credible sources, so this should be a good addition as it objectively speaks about fraternal polyandry within Kinnaur. It is a peer reviewed article published in the New York Human Ecology journal.

Sachdeva, Swati Ashkay; Surjyajeevan, Yumnam (2021). Identity in Question: The Study of Tibetan Refugees in the Indian Himalayas. Wilmington, DE: Vernon Press. p. 33.

This piece focuses on the displacement of Tibetans from China and how they have to change in order to survive within Indian society. It focuses on the different implications their exile has on women and gender roles within their own communities. It also explains and discusses the history of Tibetans and their exile along with different statistics of where they have now settled. This is relevant to the article as it explains the many different factors that go into Tibetan lives within India, which can be explained or supplemented by the other articles speaking specifically about polyandry.

Grent, Nellie (1 January 2002). Polyandry in Dharamsala: Plural-Husband Marriage in a Tibetan Refugee Community in Northwest India. Brill. pp. 105–106.

Grent briefly talks about the reasons from polyandry being practiced by Tibetan refugees. They explain how the economic conditions of the refugees leads to the need or desire to practice polyandry. Grent explains why, in a group that is mainly monogamous, polyandry becomes beneficial. Nellie Grent works for the University of Amsterdam and her piece on polyandry in Tibetan refugees is featured in the 8th volume of Tibet, Self, and the Tibetan Diaspora.

Tanka, Subba B. (1988). "Social Adaptation of the Tibetan Refugees in the Darjeeling-Sikkim Himalayas". The Tibet Journal. 3 (3): 49–57 – via JSTOR.

Tanka explains the different uses for monogamy, polygamy, and polyandry within Tibetan culture. They explain why Tibetan refugees practice polyandry and the material conditions that have led for them to need to. First the exile of Tibetans from China is explained and then the different changes that happened to them once settling in India. The piece comes from The Tibet Journal and speaks objectively about the conditions that have led to polyandry becoming prevalent in the Tibetan refugees' lives.
