Legal Question in Family Law in India
My name is Ramamani living in Bangalore, India, married, aged 58 years, housewife, having two daughters married and living abroad. I have only one brother who is a doctor settled well in UK for the past 30 years. I and my mother are not in good terms with my brother because he cheated us by making a false will from my unmarried maternal uncle (who died 4 years back) which is totally in his favour.
My mother has given me a property as Registered Gift Deed which she got from her grand mother again as gift (2 sites of 40�x60� in Salem, Tamil Nadu). I and my husband plan to make a joint venture of apartments in that plot with some developers in Salem.
Some of my friends and well wishers say that although the property is given as gift by my mother to me, I may have some problems from my brother if I go ahead with joint venture. Although he doesn�t know about the gift deed yet, he is already asking a share in this property from my mother.
They suggest better alternative may be to sell the property to the developer and then use that money to buy apartments if I want either from her or elsewhere.
Please advice what is the best solution in this regard with minimum problems from my brother.
