Question: My father is having illegal relations with my paternal aunt. They have discretely registered their marriage after my mother demise. I am the only daughter of my father and now married. My father is reluctant to give my educational certificates. Can i have the share in property in future? Can i avail the benefits of family pension scheme? My aunt has 3 children from first marriage, can i suspend pension of my stepmom in future?

Being a daughter, you have right in the property of your father if he dies intestate. In India, if a father dies intestate (without a will), his property will be inherited by his legal heirs. In the absence of any sons, his daughter will be his sole legal heirs and will inherit his entire property.

Until marriage you have the right to get a portion of family pension because your father is refusing to maintain you. However, in this situation you can also claim maintenance from your father in Section 125 of the code of criminal procedure.

Your father has no right to retain your educational certificates. You should submit a representation to the state woman commission against the illegal retention of your certificates by your father. Don't engage police authority for taking certificates from your father because it may further worsen your relations with your father.
