What does it mean by right of Escheat?
Another question was what is 'Right of Escheat'? But there is no right of escheat as such. There is principle of Escheat by which, when there is no single heir or successor for a deceased person in Sunni Muslims the whole property of him escheats to the Government. So, in simple words, escheat means transfer of property of deceased to government as there is nobody to look after that property.
