    Hello A property in the hands of women will be her own and absolute property in which nobody has any rights during her life time and she is also having full rights in law to dispose it in any manner to any one of her choice, she need take anyone's const regarding this. Upon her intestate demise, the property shall first devolve on her own legal heirs first and then only if there are no class I legal heirs, the property may pass on to the class II legal heirs. Her husband and children are her class I legal heirs. Thanks Please rate if you find this advice helpful.
