A.Hi
Sub Registrar has no powers to examine the contents of a WILL.
His only duty is to register the WILL and check whether the registration charges and stamp duty are paid properly by the executor(will maker)
The executor (will maker) will simply need to take 2 witnesses along, present the ID cards of will maker and 2 witnesses and register the WILL.
Only courts have the powers to decide on the WILL , should there be any dispute between the beneficiary and others.
Hope this information is useful.
