Dear Sir/Madam,
We have an ancestral agricultural land in Punjab which is currently in the name of my father. My father had taken charge of this land after my grandfather's death (and now the land is in my father's name), and my grandfather in the same way earlier. So, I hope that I understand this correctly as an ancestral agricultural property. Now, my father has recently written his will on this land. As I understand the law, ancestral property cannot be willed.
My question: Whenever the time comes for the execution of his will, will his will be honoured or only the law (which states equal distribution between me and my sisters will take effect). As per my understanding, he cannot will this property since this is ancestral, so is there any use of making this will even if the land is in his name now?
I will be grateful for your response.
