Any property movable or immovable if it is in the name of your husband yes a wife can claim a share during the time of divorce but if it is an ancestral property and still in the names of his parents and then the wife cannot claim any share during the time of divorce. The duration of the marriage will not have any consequence on this settled proposition of law.
and in the second case
The right of the minor child cannot be taken away and she has right to claim maintenance from her father and she has right to claim in grandfather\'s or grandmother\'s property. But with regard to father\'s self owned property the daughter has no right till father is alive and she can only claim maintenance at present.
1. Under the present law prevailing in India a wife has no share in the property of her parents, much less in-laws, regardless of the duration of her marriage. Her only right is to reside in the property of her husband during the subsistence of her marriage.
2. The issue of child custody can be independently assailed by either parent before the guardianship court.
