• Property dispute

We were two brothers. My elder brother has died few years ago. My elder brother's wife and children are not having any relations with my father mother who are with me. My mother's property is in her possession since it was purchased for more than fifteen years. My mother does not want to give that property to her or her children and wants to sell it off. Since she will not like to part with that property and vacate the same kindly advise the right course for disposing off the property.

Well, the daughter in law or the grand children have no right of sahre in the proeprty belonging to your mother.

So your mother is the absolute owner of the said house and she can file a suit for eviction f her daughter in law.

Such suits though takes time but would surely see that the daughter in law is evicted of the house.

So meet a lawyer and get such suit filed.

Your mother being the owner of the property has to file a suit for recovery of possession in the civil court to evict her daughter-in-law. She is free to make a will during her lifetime, in which event the property will devolve according to the will after her lifetime.

The property that is in your mother's name shall be her own and absolute property.

She need not take consent or NOC from anyone to sell the property.

She is having marketable title to the property hence it is she who has to decide about not giving a share in the property to your deceased brother's wife or his children.

They cannot claim any share in her property as a right.

Making a will in this regard will be beneficial in whose favour will is made?

If your mother wants to bequeath the property by a testamentary disposition i.e., a Will, she can very well do it in favor of any beneficiary of her own choice.

Nobody can interfere in her decision nor anyone has any right in her property to object to her will.
