The case involves a dispute over whether properties that had come to the woman’s father from her grandfather retained the character of ancestral property, giving her a right to seek partition under the Hindu Succession Act. The woman, based in the US, has been living abroad since her marriage in 1979. She filed a suit seeking partition of family properties and an equal share in them after her father sold one property.
