Ancestral property demand from father for a married girl Ancestral property demand from father for a married girl

1 year ago

I'm married, and my brother and father don't talk to me, we have a ancestral agriculture land and shops in a village near Meerut Uttar Pradesh.
When I asked my father and brother about my share in that land,
they said married daughters have no rights in farm land in Uttar Pradesh and this land is belong to our son,
we already put their names in will and you can't claim now.
This land is coming from our great grandfather.
Is this true in Uttar Pradesh married daughters have no rights in farm land?
They have also got the Compensation of 3 crore rupees from the part of this land.

A.Dear Client,

After the recent amendment of the Hindu Succession Act, a daughter is recognized as a coparcener in the ancestral property, i.e. she has a right by birth in the ancestral property, and thus, a daughter will have an equal share in the ancestral property as that of a son even after marriage.
Hence in your case you do have a right to the property and since it is an ancestral property your father cant write you out of the will as you have a stake in it from your birth.

Thank you so much I hope this answer helped you.
