The daughter-in-law cannot claim her right over her father-in-law's self acquired property.However, if the father-in-law has prepared a will in favor of daughter-in-law,she can claim her right to the property only after the father-in-law's demise by executing the will.
Also, as the dauhter-in-law is a widow, she can conveniently inherit the property of her father-in-law in capacity of a widow of a predeceased son who is considered as class 1 legal heir if the father in law dies intestate(without making a will).
