sir,
My aunty died unmarried in the year feb.2010. She has left behind some bank balance and one flat property. It is her self acquired property. Her mother and father expired in year 1960 and 1978 respectively. She has one real brother and one real sister( my mother) as legal heirs. My uncle(brother of deceased) applied for succession, in which he said the sister of deceased(my mother)has no right/claim, as she was married in the year 1950 i.e. before hindu succession act 1956.
Sir my question is, can my mother(real sister of deceased) claim property of her sister as she was married in 1950 or whether our claim will be denied as my mother (deceased sister)was married before hindu succession act 1956. Please guide. We stay in Pune(Maharashtra).
