A. Hi. I am sorry for what you had to go through. To answer your question, yes, you can still file a complaint under the POSCO Act. The government has clarified this position that victims of child sexual abuse can file a police complaint after they become adults. There is no period of limitation for the same.

A. Hi,

On the death of their ancestor, nothing can prevent both girl and boy child to become the legal heirs of the inheritable property.

Your mother can gift the property which she has right upon to whoever she wants and not those share on which she doe ...ReadMore

At the same time the bank did not receive the request to freeze either form the singatories or ...ReadMore

A. Hi,
The buyer is someone to whom the property is being transferred. If you want to execute power of attorney to someone, he won't be the owner of the property but has the right to do transactions related to the property. PoA is a legal document giving an attorney-in-charge or legal agent the authority to act on behalf of the principal.
