Ans: Obtain a Copy of the Will
Visit the local Sub-Registrar's office to get a certified copy of the will. This will confirm if the will exists and if it's legally valid.
Consult a Legal Expert
Speak to a lawyer who specialises in property and inheritance law. They can guide you on the legality of the will and its validity.
Challenge the Will in Court
If you suspect foul play or believe the will is forged, you can challenge it in court. Your lawyer can help you file a case for probate or contest the will.
Gather Evidence
Collect any evidence that supports your claim, like statements from your grandmother or witnesses who knew her intentions.
Secure Other Documents
Ensure all other property documents are in your possession to prevent any further disputes.
Proceeding legally and with the help of a qualified lawyer will be essential in resolving this matter.
