WOMEN’S PROPERTY RIGHTS
Earlier women did not have any rights in the property and they were at the mercy of the male members of the family. Joint Hindu Family, unique institution, acted as refugee home of many women and widows and with the disappearance of the Joint Hindu Family, the plight of women worsened.
Another area which was improved upon was the Co parcener’s property. Co- parcener’s property is a Hindu undivided family property. The members of Hindu Undivided property are called co- parceners who are related to the head of the family and attain the right in the property by birth.
On partition of the co-parcenary property women is entitled to equal share as that of a son. The property so acquired is capable of being disposed by her through will or any other testamentary disposition.
