Settlement & sale deed

This discussion explores the validity of a settlement and sale deed concerning property acquired through Darkast Right in Karnataka. The core question is whether children from a first marriage are entitled to rights if their father settles self-acquired property on his second wife, who then sells it to a third party. The consensus suggests that if the property was self-acquired by the father, the second wife generally has the right to transfer it, and the sale to a third party would likely stand. However, if the property were ancestral, the situation could be different.
