Yes, your sister can legally challenge this. Under Hindu Succession Act, daughters have equal inheritance rights as sons. She can file a suit for partition and claim her rightful share. The court will consider the legal framework and may order a fair division of the property.

Our family, a big joint one with 25 members, lived in our village until 2008. My father, the sole breadwinner, supported us all. He single-handedly built our house. Now, we’re splitting into smaller families. I’m curious, after the division, what share of our grandfather’s property will my father receive? And how can I find out more about the details of our grandfather’s estate?

The Patwari is also being difficult, demanding money and repeatedly measuring the land. It feels like a big scam.

He says the change was necessary because of new regulations. But the agreement doesn’t mention anything about changes or extra charges. Is the builder’s request justified? Should I pay him for this new space?

Next Article My family invested in an assured return property three years ago. We received the promised returns until December, but haven’t seen anything since. The builder assures us they’ll pay for January and February in March. While we’re worried about the missing returns, our biggest concern is about the property itself and whether we’ll actually receive it on time. We’re afraid the builder might run away or cancel the project. What legal options do we have? Are there any government regulations to protect us in this situation?
