Inheritance right in agricultural land in up

SURESH CHANDRA SINGH (Querist) 17 November 2016 This query is : Resolved
Father has died recently leaving behind one married son and two daughters whose marriage he did not do. Will daughters get equal share in agricultural land located in Ballia, Uttar Pradesh. There is also a house in Ballia in his name. How to go about it.

While Hidu succession Act 2005 grants gender equality, State Law is same old of 1950.
Please treat this as urgent.

In UP agriculture land is subject to UP Land and Zamindari Abolition Act.

Some amendments were reported as being discussed but there is no confirmation if these are notified.

You can download the Act, publication of previous amendment, and a discussion on Gender based equality............from an old and illustrated thread;

The matters are sent to revenue officials.

Local counsel well versed with the local law and amendments can advise you the best.
