However, if the father is alive and has transferred his self-acquired property to the sons or grandsons, then the daughters have no right to claim it. If the father died and the property has been transferred through a will, then the daughter ...ReadMore

A. Dear Client,

The court held that the provision was discriminatory as it only punished a man for adultery and not the woman involved.
After this judgment, adultery is no longer a criminal offense in India, and the legal perspective has shifted towards personal matters rather than imposing crimina ...ReadMore
