SUPREME COURT'S HISTORIC DECISION, DAUGHTERS' RIGHTS TO FATHER'S PROPERTY
Monday, September 17, 2018 IST
New Delhi: In the year 2005, the central government had amended the Hindu Succession Act and arranged to give equal rights to the daughters in their inheritance.
Now the Supreme Court has also stamped the matter.
The Supreme Court has also agreed on the arrangement of the Central Government. The Supreme Court has also made it clear in one of its decisions on Friday that the Hindu Succession law applies to all women. The central government says that those who have been born before 2005 also have the right to this law.
The judge of Justice AK Sikri and Justice Ashok Bhushan said that the revised law guarantees that the daughter will also be "partner" from birth and she will have the same rights and responsibilities as sons are of the same.
The Supreme Court has given this order on the petition of two sisters who want a share in their father's property. The brothers of these sisters refused to share them in the property. After this he had to face the court in 2002. The trial court had dismissed his plea in 2007 and said that since his birth was before 2005, he is not entitled.
His appeal was rejected by the High Court, after which he knocked on the Supreme Court's door. Agreeing to the petition of these sisters, the Supreme Court overturned the High Court verdict and ruled in favor of daughters.
