My grandfather passed away without a will about 7-8 years ago. My two uncles recently sold some of his land for around 91 lakhs. There are four siblings in total – two brothers and two sisters, including my mother. My uncles are refusing to share this money with my mother. Is there any legal way she can claim her share?

Yes, your mother has a legal right to claim her share of the inheritance from your grandfather’s land. As there was no will, the property will be divided equally among the four siblings under the Hindu Succession Act, 1956. Your mother can file a legal claim to receive her rightful share.

Previous Article My mom recently filed a case to divide our ancestral property. She accidentally included some land that was already sold, but didn’t name the new owners in the case. My grandfather sold his share of the land before 1980 and my uncle signed the papers as his father’s share. My uncle and grandfather had an informal division of the property before 1980. If my mom removes that land from the case through an amendment, it proves that the land was already divided, but the new owner might not know about it. What happens if they find out? How can I protect my share and navigate this situation?
Next Article I was a lecturer at a college for a few years. My appointment letter had a two-month notice period, and they kept my original certificates. Due to a serious medical emergency, I couldn’t fulfill the notice period. Now, the college management is demanding two months’ salary to release my certificates, even after I submitted a medical certificate. Is there any way I can get my certificates back without paying this amount under these circumstances? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
