Re: property issue
What is the query?
If a property is owned by wife, then husband has no control over the same.
As regards property owned by husband, he can dispose off the same during his life time or make a proper Will for its disposal after his demise. However, Will can be changed at any time during the life time of the Testator.
Re: property issue
If the property is a self-acquired property of your father, then he is at liberty to decide whom to give that property.
Re: property issue
She has no right or entitlement in your father's property during his life time. If the properties are self acquired by your father, he may disinherit her or any other legal heir from inheritance by excluding that person in his will.
