Hi Sir,
My name is mani,Here i would like to take some advice on my grand father's(Mother's father) property.Actually my mother is one and only daughter to my grand parents
I and 2 sisters are to my parents,i only did my sister's marriages and i only cleared all my father's loans(No proper papers but everyone know in the family),Due to some family disturbances in the home my grand parents(mother's parents ) are staying with me since 5 years and not with my mother,
Suddenly property issue brought by my sisters and they are asking my mother to get proper will on my mother's name from my grand parents but My grand parents are not ready to make the will on my mother's name because once they write the will on my mother's name definitely that will go to my sisters not to me because my mother is supports to my sisters always and they are telling that you only taken the family responsibilities and did the sister's marriage,cleared all the loans,now sending the money to the parents(my mom and dad) for their expenses and even i am take caring of them.
Finally my grand parents are telling that the property must come to me not to any one even my mother because i only did everything to the family.
So now they are ready to make the will on my name not to my mother's name.
Please advice me how i can proceed.
Thank you..
Regards,
Mani.

Since it is your maternal grand parent's self-acquired property, they have every right to dispose of the same in any manner that they like. They can surely make a WILL in your favour by excluding your mother. But be aware that others who are interested in the property viz., your mother and your sisters would challenge the validity of the WILL on the ground of undue influence, pressure, fraud, coercion etc. Then you have to defend the genuineness of the WILL and that it was not due to any pressure etc.

No one can compel any other person to write will on one's particular name.
It is the will and wish of your grand father.
If your mother compels her father, that will be an offence.

Agreed with Ld. Ramachandran.
