dg (house wife)     26 March 2015

Claim of a married daughter

My father had constructed a house in joint name with my mother. My mother died in 1988 without making any will. Now my father wants to give the whole property to my brother without giving me any. Is he can do this. The plot was from government in 999 years lease and in its term and conditions it has been stated that the plot cannot be partitioned without the approval of the govt.

Do I have a right in my fathers property?

House jointly owned by father and mother, only mother's ill not valid. UR  father can gift it to anybody as it is self acquired. Hence legally U have no say

Your father can bequeath his 50% share to any one as per his desire but remaining 50% share of your mother will be divided into her legal heirs.

I Agree with Bhartesh goyal sir.

Your mother's share in the property will be considered as intestate property and it will devolve equally upon all her legal heirs namely, you, your brother and your father, therefore your father cannot divest your interest and rights of your share in the property to anyone without your consent.
