File a petition for succession certificate from Competent Court for more

Hello, Greetings of the day!
For the query you posted, I would suggest that:
The Legal representative who is representing next in the order can claim the amount as well as the material in the locker by obtaining a Succession Certificate.
Here, in this case, Daughter needs to obtain a succession certificate to claim the amount in the bank and material kept in the locker.
A succession certificate is a certificate that is granted by the Court of Law to the legal heirs of a person dying intestate (when he/she does not leave a legal Will) leaving debts and securities. 
To acquire a succession certificate, a petition is to be filed to the District Judge within whose jurisdiction the deceased person ordinarily resided at the time of his/her demise or, if at that time he or she had no fixed place of residence, the District Judge within whose jurisdiction any part of the property of the deceased might be found.

Hope it helps
Best Regards,
Sneha Jaiswal
