Agricultural land joint holding question

Mr. H has 50 acres of agri land in Karnataka state.  He leaves a will naming his wife W as the beneficiary.  & he dies.

H and W have a married daughter D

H & W have  a pre-deceased son  - who was married and is survived by widow and 2 minor kids

The agri land is now transferred to W successfully as per will, as seen on gov land records.

But the agri land is registered as jointly held by W & D -
W- 100% share and
D - 0% share (as seen in gov land records)

What are the rights of daugter -D while W still alive?   What if  W dies intestate?   
What are the rights of pre-deceased son S's  surviving wife and kids? Do they have a claim on the land?

No rights of D while W is alive. 

in case W dies intestate, legal heir I will have equal proportions.

Equal share for daughter n sons widow

It is believed that all are Hindu.

Confirm!

The property that devolves by WILL acquire status of Self Acquired.

NO one has forced share in self acquired estate/property of Mother, in her life time.

In case of Hindu Female dying without leaving a valid WILL the nature of proeprty and its source matters.

1st right on her self acquired property is of her sons and daughters ( husband has died).

The son's share devolves upon his ClassI legal heirs i.e; wife, sosn,daughters.
