Yesterday, our anpadh gawar anandi, gave 'vakalat' on behalf of Jagya and demonstrated her great legal knowledge...
she told bhairon "if you dont give money, then what if jagya files a court case for his share of the property, since he is still legally your son?"
This is completely bogus. Jagya has no legal right to the property just like that by virtue of being a biological son. It is the complete right of the owner of the money to give or not to give money to whomever he pleases. There are several cases where people give all their money away to charity...and not to their children.
If a son or daughter wishes to legally challenge that the parents are not giving money, there is an extensive procedure where the child has to demonstrate that parents were mentally unfit and a psychiatrist will have to testify in front of the court. There is no way that Jagya will be able to do this since bhairon, basant and maasaa are all completely mentally competent. If the three dont want to give him money, then they dont have to give him money. He has no legal right to the money on his own... and such a contestation/case can only be filed after a person's death or after a person's will has been filed.
I can understand that anandi did not file the case against jagya because she did not want to be the cause of the haveli's and family's ijjat going down the drain.
But to advocate for jagya -- saying what if jagya goes to court for money and is the cause of the downfall of haveli's ijjat? That is completely the haveli's lookout. She is not responsible for jagya taking the family to court.
The spineless coward would never have the battery to do that anyway.
In addition, I find it odd that anandi would leave her school in the middle of the day to talk to bhairon about this. This is easily something that could have waited until night time. But no, she left her work half-way to advocate on behalf of this man who has illtreated her.
