Story Going Haywire

In the program, Balika Vadhu, what is being shown currently is against the law of India. According to the Hindu Succession Act, 1956, a person's self-acquired property is entirely his/ her own. No legal heirs of that person can claim a share in that property or demand partition of the same till the time the owner of that property, i.e. the person who earned that property is alive. Since in the show, it has been shown that the property is the self earned property of Kalyani Devi, she has the sole rights over the entire property and her grandson Jagdish cannot claim his share in the same because he has no legal share. Kalyani Devi has the sole right to bestow the property on anyone she wishes by drafting a will.

Moreover, since Jagdish has already committed the offence of Bigamy, the Singh family need not plead Jagdish for giving Anandi a divorce, they can simply file a criminal case against him. That would free Anandi from this marriage as well as send Jagdish to jail.

They should show the reality to the world, about these legal matters, so people know about them... Instead of turning the story somewhere else...!

One day the baby of JG will tell them that daddy you do not have any legal right on the property...then JG will...oh...we have been reading this forever and never got that one...thank you...
