This is in reference to the article/notes on the subject appearing on https://www.lawyersclubindia.com dated 28th March 2016 authored by Advocate Shri Kapil Chandna on the Supreme Court recent ruling in Prakash & Ors v. Phulavati & Ors, rendered on 16 October 2015. In this connection I would like to consult yourself on my personal case for distribution/settlement of ancestral property in Delhi. This is a lease hold property allotted in my father's name by the erstwhile Rehabilitation Department of the (presently) Ministry of Urban Development (L&DO) in lieu of the claims approved by Govt. of India against properties left behind in West Pakistan on partition of the country. I want to consult your goodself in the matter for some legal opinion which is somewhat relevant to the decision of Apex Court in the above stated judgement. My father died on 8th Feb.,1985 and my mother also died in June, 2000. The property is yet to be distributed among four brothers (2 married in 1979 and 1986) and sisters ( 2 married in 1976 and 1987). How (in what proportion) the property should be or will be divided in this case. My elder brother 73 is living away and settled elsewhere outside Delhi from the year 1974 onwards and presently I am in sole possession of the property after the death of Mother in 2000 who was living with me till death. Please guide. Thanks.
