Property Rights: Does a daughter have a right to her father's property after marriage? Know here
Since independence, many constitutional rights have been given to empower women at the economic and social level. Apart from this, the central and state governments are also running many great schemes to advance women in the direction of self-employment. Often what constitutional rights have been given to women in ancestral property? There is a lot of confusion among the people about this. Many people in India call girls as Paraya Dhan. The reason for this is that daughters go to their husband's house after marriage. In such a situation, many people often have this question that does a daughter have a right to her father's property after marriage? If you also want to know about this subject, then today we are going to tell you about this. Let's know -
According to the amendment made in the Hindu Succession Act in 2005, married daughters have also been given equal rights in the father's property. Before the year 2005, daughters did not get rights in father's property after marriage.
However, these rules have been changed after the amendment made in the Hindu Succession Act in 2005. However, in some cases daughters do not get rights in the father's property. If the father makes a will while alive and transfers the entire property in the name of the son, in such a situation the daughter cannot claim her right in the father's property.
The daughter has the right on the father's property. However, she has the first right on the self-earned property of the father. Due to this, the father can give that property to anyone at his will.
Apart from this, if any kind of criminal case is registered on the father's property, even in this situation the daughter or any other member of the family cannot claim their right on that property.
