Grand mother's self acquired property needs to shared. One of the daughters wants to execute a Release deed for her share to her sister. In this case, is it required to obtain a release deed from her son to herself before releasing to her sister?

It is not required to get a release deed from son to her but son can be a witness (consenting or confirming) to the intended release deed by one sister to another.
Thanking you,

It is believed that deceased lady was Hindu and property was self acquired.Her property shall devolve equally upon all children. Any son/daughter can sign a valid and registered release/relinquishment deed in favor any other.It shall be better if others are consenting or confirming witnesses as advised by Mr. Subash M R.

Dear Sirs, thanks a lot for response. Lady is Hindu. Does the right devolve into her grand children ie. son or daughter of ladie's daughters? is so then it may be required for the grandchildren who have attained majority have to first release their right/share to their mother and then their mother have to release to other sister. Is it right?

Dear Sirs,
Also if any of the grandchildren do not wish to execute the release deed either as confirming witness or otherwise to their mother, then their share has to be given to them?
