Hi,
I am 34 year old Male Hindu from Agarwal family. I was adopted by my maternal uncle at the age of 1.5 month as my mother got a paralysis attack after my birth, nearly after 15 days. No Legal process was followed as this was purely family matter and my maternal uncle and aunt ( Adoptive Parent) didn't have any child.
My biological parents belongs to a well settled and educated family, He was a JE in PWD UP. My adoptive parents were not well settled as my adoptive father was unemployed and mother was illiterate. At the age of 13, I lost my adoptive father after suffering of illness nearly 2 Years almost penniless. My adoptive mother did some domestic help work and let me complete my education till Graduation.
Inspite of being in good financial health, my biological parent didn't help me as I turned down their proposal to live with them leaving behind my adoptive mother penniless, lonely and aging. They were not ready to help her in that situation.
By God's grace, I was able to educate myself with the help of my adoptive mother and a gentleman in my hometown. In all this situation my name in all the documents have been mentioned with the sur name of my adoptive parents.
Now I have been married and working in an MNC, my wife is also working and living with my mother.
I have lost my biological mother in 2003 and now have my biological father and three brothers. Two brothers are married, one brother is widowed.
Now my question is can I claim any share of property in my biological father’s property and can I claim any compensation from him as he didn't fulfill his duty as parent.
What are the rights ( if any), do I have and what is the process to be followed to claim that.
One of my brother is in favor of me, one is against and one is neutral.
Please help.
Regards,
Vikas
