Whether property inherited by minor U/S 8 Hindu Succession Act same can be termed as joint Hindu family property?

In the present case, the suit property has devolved on defendant Nos. 1 to 3 under Section 8 of the Hindu Succession Act and the same cannot be termed as joint Hindu family property. Defendant No.1 through defendant No.4 had agreed to sell the property of defendants No. 2 and 3 for necessity as is evidence from the petition filed before the Court under Section 29 of the Guardians and Wards Act by defendant No.4 on the basis of a lawful power of attorney executed in his favour Ex.4/D1,D2,D3. Thus defendant No.1 could have entered into an agreement to sell with the plaintiff in view of the necessity subject to the permission of the Court which was duly applied for though the same could be avoided by the minors on attaining majority. Issue No.2 is also decided in favour of the plaintiff and against the defendants.
