Succession law
Amar Singh is an octogenarian widower who has been living in his ancestral property i.e., a twostoreyed
bungalow situated in Indore for many years. Pertinently, Amar does not bear any
children. The subject property is a part of a Hindu Undivided Family, and Amar shares it with his
paternal nephews viz. Ramesh (47) and Suresh (50).
Both Ramesh and Suresh are running the family business of manufacturing bangles which are
sold under the brand name of - ‘Baghban’.
Unfortunately, in the last couple of years, Amar’s relationship with his nephews have soured.
Amar is now being actively ignored and neglected by them. The situation has worsened to the
extent that Ramesh and Suresh have forcefully encroached upon the Amar’s part of the
ancestral house and have confined all of Amar’s possessions to a single room. Amar is now left
with little privacy and personal space. The situation escalated when Amar was cornered in his
own house and was ill-treated and neglected by his relatives.
