If there is a disput such as your and you feel that your right has been taken away by someone, you will have to approach the court if the issue is not resolved by talking between the parties. Hence you may have to go to court and please take help of a experienced advocate who will be able to guide you.

You have rightly realised that a Power of Attorney is not useful after the death of the person who gives the PoA.

I do not know where the property is located butassume that it is in Mumbai.

Earlier, prior to 1994, married daughters's share in parents' property was not considered but since 1994, a daughter and a son has equal ownership in the parents' property and the daughter (even if she is married) also has her share in ancestral property. So you had a share in the rights to thte property.

But as per the Rent laws in Mumbai, where tenancy rights are passed on to the next of kin who is/are staying with the tenant at the time of death. In your case, you may be staying somewhere else and hence your brother could get the names transferred on the ration card, electricity bill, etc.

You may be staying separately due to some issue but your name is in the same ration card with your brother. However, you can go and stay with your mother in the same house and if your brother does not allow you to stay there you may file a police complaint. Also, if he has removed your name from the ration card without your consent and knowledge you may fiel a complaint for the same too. If your case is genuine, the you will be helped by the organisations for women too.

My suggestion would be to approach a legal cell for women or the police station who will guide you.

S Jadhav
