NDad disinherited me and gave everything to my brother in the US
Ever since my parents got to know that my ex-wife has filed for divorce because of my affair ,my parents are very angry and from past 2 years my dad has been threatening to disinherit me and give everything to my brother, who lives in the US. Recently, I found out that he has already made a will explicitly stating that I will get nothing, and everything will go to my brother.
I don’t know the exact details of the will yet, but I assume it includes both self-acquired and ancestral property. I’m in banglore , all I know that ancestral property can’t be willed away but he has given all his self acquired property to my brother. Can I challenge this later? Also, what happens if the witnesses of the will are no longer alive? Can I challenge stating that he made this will because of sheer aggression?

WMy friend faced a similar issue . He got the inheritance as he used Aurungzeb tactics.
He sent a special sweets delivered when the other brother visited the father . Everyone passed away peacefully in sleep
The judge giving favorable verdict to my friend lost all his money to a fire recently .

MIt was a good decision by your parents. You should respect their choice. However, I do not believe you have any self-respect, considering you cheated on your wife in the first place.

UNAL.
From what I’ve read and have seen- ancestral property that has been partitioned and registered in your father’s name is his self acquired property. It’s his choice on what to do with it. You can challenge this in court, but you will waste money and your parent’s money.
As for his own acquired property, you have no rights either. It’s his choice here too.
You should consult an attorney to verify this.

N> From what I’ve read and have seen- ancestral property that has been partitioned and registered in your father’s name is his self acquired property
My dad directly inherited from grandfather as my dad is only child.
> person who wrote the will was not in a sound mental position
No , I can’t use that tactic for very obvious reasons.
So unless my dad voluntarily adds me again , there is no chance of me getting any part of it in the future? What if me and my parents reconcile then?
I got ripped off completely in my divorce and now my parents have disinherited me ,I am left with nothing much now.

UThe land has to be non-partitioned for 4 generations and passed on as inheritance after death to be considered ancestral property. At any point, if the land was partitioned or willed, it becomes self acquired property of the person. Check how the land was inherited. If it was inherited after the death, then you have to check the other generations. Consult a lawyer. In India, law is what you argue and how much you pay the judge anyways unlike western countries. It’s not absolute.

NGot it , thanks! It was partitioned before my grandfather got it so it isn’t ancestral property anymore. I thought in worse case atleast I will get ancestral lands but….. Nevermind.

UYour parents gave you life. They raised you and gave you some morals (not all from the looks of it). Be grateful for that. As for properties and stuff- Yes it’s nice to cry in a Mercedes than on a street, but end of the day it’s still crying. Your most important assets is your family. Money comes and goes. Be thankful and apologize to the fam. And move on.

N> Tbh, legally what your parents did is smart. They basically told the court that you’re not part of the will- so your alimony will go down.
Lol no , they waited for 3 years to get my divorce process over and then registered the will. I am giving alimony and child support separately and it was not concluded by considering my parents property.
-
UYou did not choose onetime alimony payment to the wife?
The child support you have to give till he’s 18 or the girl gets married or she finds a job. I hate that about Indian laws that it’s father’s responsibility till the girl gets married.-
NYeah giving one time alimony as ex is financially independent and will pay child support till 18y.

SYou shouldnt listen to these people. Cheating is bad and you deserve a punishment for it, but you dont deserve the death sentence.
I think you should forget about inheritance and rebuild your life. You should be on fire to succeed now given that you burned all your bridges. This is how millionaires are being made.

QConsult a lawyer this case is tricky if you can prove that your dad is not in a right mental state the will can be challenged… Record the conversation of your father it can be used as evidence. Also your father can’t will away the ancestral property so you can still challenge it in court. Get a lawyer asap.
Also you are a bitch for cheating on your wife. But whatever some people will never learn. Maybe next time don’t think with your third leg and use some of that brain that you have in your head.

PHe did what he could within legal means – meaning that, he couldn’t disinherit you from the ancestral property, but he could from his own wealth. Consult a lawyer, but if substantively what your father did was legal, I would leave it and avoid going after the will based on these technicalities. And overall, I would not do this – you say that you cannot hurt your parents more but dragging them to court, especially when your challenge is tentative, will only add more fuel to the fire. Also, it will likely eliminate any chance of reconciliation.
I know that between this and your divorce case, your wealth has been zeroed out. I would not look back but forward at this point. Get a therapist, put your head down, and just focus on work and rebuilding yourself. You are young, both from a perspective of building your wealth again and a personal life. Look back only to learn from your mistakes (because it honestly doesn’t seem that you have accepted fully that these are consequences of what you did). Otherwise, your best option is forward.

PSame in r/offmychestindia. ‘A safe and non-judgemental zone’.
Obviously what he did was wrong and he is facing the consequences of that, but people are hell bent on abusing him, laughing and what sorts lol, saying he deserves nothing 💀. Like ok ? He knows that he fucked up pretty bad.
Like there have been so many cheating related posts on both these subs but I haven’t seen this much abuse.

LIf OP had been a woman, people would have gone full on “you go girl… You need your independence and you can be the judge of your own life” crap.
The double standard is nakedly visible.
