Quick Summary

This discussion concerns two adult children whose parents tragically passed away. Their paternal grandmother was appointed property guardian, while their maternal uncle became the legal guardian for the children. The grandmother managed the children's inherited property, including life insurance and land, but failed to deposit yearly agricultural income as ordered by the court. Now that the children are adults, they wish to claim their property, but the grandmother is demanding a share, despite having her own inherited assets. The children are seeking legal advice on how to file a suit to reclaim their property.

Both children shall file a declaration suit in court to get their property by consulting a knowledgeable advocate.

Dear Sir thanks for reply. Just wanted to know if children file declaration suit. Does Grandmother of children will get property as per succession law? Also agricultural land out of self acquired property of childern' s father is property which he received after partition from inherited property where her mother also received her share already. So she should not get share in this particular property again?
Also as Grandmother not complied guardianship order by not deposting agricultural income for 15 years will this bt adjusted in Declation suit?
Any ground on which her share can be minimised seeing her age and one childern is with deformity?

Consult a local lawyer with the guardian appointment letter as without verifying cannot say.

The paternal grandmother is a legal heir to the property left by her late son. As such, she has a share in the property, not as the guardian of the children but as the legal heir to her deceased son.
