Could a division agreement signed by the father and his sons, with witnesses, be legally valid even without registration? Is the adopted brother entitled to inherit from his biological father’s property? And what are the chances of the six brothers, who accept the original division, securing their rightful share?

Can her father be held accountable for his actions under Indian law?
