Dear Friend,

You have mentioed there was a oral partition and lands are devided and recorded in Pass book. Please check whether your grand mother has died with out making will or sold it to your uncle in her life time. contact local advocate for detailed clarification.

Re: Ansister Property

As there is oral partition and Passbooks were brought in to existence and as you admitting that partition was taken place, one can sell the property fell to his share, it is not barred under law.

Regarding the property of your grand mother, after partition she got full right over the property fell to her share and she had every right to execute any Documents in favour of any body. As such the Registration is valid.

It is possible to sell the property basing on Pssbooks and other revenue records as the Buyer must beware.

It is admitted that oral partition already took place therefore your uncle has legal right to sell the property of his share and the same method will apply in the case your grandmother as she has also full right to give her share to any person
