Dear Sir / Madam,

What remains important is the title to a property, and it is immaterial whether the property in question is ancestral or self acquired. In the given case if widow A has acquired the title of the property by way of stree dhan from her parents or from her deceased husband, widow A does neither needs the consent nor permission of her married daughters B and C to sell/lease/gift/will the property standing in her name. Widow A enjoys full right to do as she pleases and best deems fit.

Regards,
