Women’s Property Rights Being a Daughter Under Hindu Law Breaking Patriarchy and Improving Women's Rights

Author(s) Rishi Yadav, Dr. Kulwant Singh
Country India
Abstract A wise man once observed that a country's treatment of its women might be used to gauge its overall health. This brief statement recognizes India's progress toward gender parity. Notwithstanding the point that women make major contributions to agriculture in numerous nations, they have low financial status because they do not own the property they work on. If women have access to land ownership, their level of economic independence and safety can be increased. The governments of India and other nations have put in place a number of programs to guarantee the protection of women in diverse contexts. It is not necessary to travel back in time to comprehend how estate ownership increases people's potential to enjoy full citizenship because the ancient Romans and Greeks created the right to cast a vote grounded on land ownership (age and gender). Anybody with the help of a basic understanding of European or American history can easily recognize the relationship between the franchise and property rights. In many countries in the Middle East, Sub-Saharan Africa, and Asia, men still have exclusive rights to land. Usually, women are seen as the "guardians" of their children, keeping valuables and other things in their custody. Is it a surprise that these are the same nations that consider women to be "minors" under the law, preventing them from signing contracts, opening bank accounts, or getting loans? Every legal dispute has a distinct history, from workplace sexual harassment to domestic animal abuse. For instance, unlike our traditional legislation, which solely protects the property rights of male descendants, the Hindu Undivided Family accords women with the same rights to their father's property. However, on August 11, 2020, our judicial system recognized a daughter's claim to her ancestors' property, granting daughters the same status as well as rights in the home and community and upholding the real meaning of Art. 14 of our Constitution of India. But is there a conclusion? How will this ruling touch the status of girls in Hindu undivided families (HUF) and why is it significant? The study's main objectives are to clarify the court decisions defending the daughter's property rights, point out legal voids, and further develop the concepts of equality and equity.
Keywords Hindu law, Hindu undivided family, property rights, ancestral property.
