Legal Question in Family Law in India
House property related
Hi, My house is in the name of my mother. I have one younger sister who is going to get married to someone against our wishes. My mother doesn't want our house to go to her. The ground floor of our house was constructed by my parents but the first floor was constructed with my income. The entire house though is still in my mother's name.
Can my sister claim legal rights to the property. What should I do to prevent her from claiming rights to the house that was constructed partially with my income as well.
My sister is still studying and she did not monetarily contribute for the construction of the house.
Thanks.

Re: House property related
what kind of brother u are who is seeking MONETARY CONTRIBUTION from a studying sister.
i feel sad when i meet people like you.
anyway i hope that you become more loving and sheltering to your sister.
i have to do my duty to advice to the person who comes to me so here it is:
if the property is self earned by your parents then they can write will in your name then the property will not go to her. dont forget to get the will registered.
