Land mutation by will
3 years ago
Dear Sir,
My father was a teacher. my self and my sister are the two children to them. after retirement, my father distributed his gratuity and other savings amounts into two parts. one part was given to my sister and another part was utilised to buy an agriculture land on his own name. after several years, I explained to him that as per law my sister may ask a share in that land even if she has taken her share earlier. Then my father has given me a will stating that the land will belong to me after my father and mother and no share will be given to my sister. now my father was expired. in this situation to whom the land will be transferred? to me or to my mother. as per will when can I own the land as per law. As I expected earlier, my sister is planning to get the share with the support of my mother. Please kindly suggest me what should I do.
Thanks

knowing law is good so your father made 'WILL'.
The land belongs to you.
Hope you made the 'WILL' properly.
but your sister will challenge 'WILL' with the support of mother.
ask your mother to shift with your sister then she will understand reality.
Hope this clarifies,

she can challenge the will.
but you are the owner as per the will.

as per the will, if your name is mentioned and if the father has clearly stated that after his death, you will be the owner of the property, then the property belongs to you and not even to yor mother or sister.
however they can challenge the will.
