Partition deed

yuvnesh subramanian (Querist) 30 July 2014 This query is : Resolved
Dear Sir,

There seems to a property of 4500 Sq.ft in the name of the father A. After demise of him and her wife. Based on their legal heir they have partitioned.Here A have 7 legal heirs (three male and four Female). Due to their understanding three male legal heirs entered in to partition deed with panchayatdar's for partitioning equal share and allotted each 1500 Sqft for THREE person to the partition Deed in the year 2001. The remaining four female legal heirs of A and another two neutral person were made as panchayatdar's for the partition and they all have witnessed that partition deed and all the covenanats says that based on the panchaytdar's advise and instruction only we have partitioned the property. All the panchayatdar have singed as witness to the partition deed.

Whether it is sufficient and the partiton is valid.
My contention is even though the 4 female legal heir were not alloted any share but they have given their consent to the partition as a panchaytdar and also signed as the witness. It seems that they also agree to the said transaction. Hence they cannot claim any right ouver the property.

Please clarify my doubt.

4 female legal heirs have right on the property . no relinquishment deed has been signed by the daughters . merely because they have signed as witness does not mean they lose their share in the property
