Approach concerned Registrar of Births and Deaths.

Yes, the query suggests no legal elements, but only procedure. You may contact the authorities/office concerned.

Without her death certificate you cannot transfer the locker account to your single account.

Besides the legal heirs of your mother have to give their consent for this.

It is a bit lengthy and cumbersome process, you may be in touch with the bank manager about all such further formilities to be complied therewith.
