Russian 'bahu' stages protest in Agra outside her in-laws house

Agra: Whosoever thinks that Saas-Bahu dramas are only limited to televisions, think again! Olga Efimenkova, a Russian bahu, has been sitting at the door-step of her in-laws as a sign of protest in Indrapuri locality of Agra in order to seek her husband's share of property from her mother-in-law.

The Russian bahu, Olga Efimenkova, is so adamant to not to end her protest that despite frequent rainfall, she sat on dharna outside the house with her son demanding her husband's share of property.

Sources say Olga had been married to Vikrant Singh Chandel and they have a son. The couple had earlier been residing in Goa but returned to Agra after suffering losses in business.

However, when the couple reached back to their house, they were denied the entry to the house as Vikrant’s mother Nirmala Chandel had already gifted the property to her daughter. This agitated Olga and she went and sat on a dharna at the doorstep.Olga said, "I have already informed New Agra police and Russian Embassy about the situation, but the police was reluctant in registering the case as they say it is a case of property dispute between family members."

Speaking on the matter, Olga’s mother-in-law Nirmala Chandel said that she is living in a single room and had gifted the house to her daughter who is estranged from her husband.

There have also been rumours that the russian bride is barred from entering her husband's house due to the despicable demands of dowry, a general dilemma in India.

I want to ask about the Indian inheritance laws. Seems the father-in-law is dead and the Bahu is living with her mother-in-law, husband and their son. In case of BD, a widow receives 1/8th of the inheritance. The remaining is divided as follows: A daughter gets 1/2 of what a brother gets.

So, what is the Indian law? To me it seems the mother-in-law has no right to give the entire house to her daughter, estrange she may be. Can someone enlighten me about the laws?

Wife, sons, daughters, all have equal rights on the deceased person's wealth, it needs to be distributed equally. Daughter-in-law has no direct right on father-in-laws property, but she gets it through her husband, he has a right.

If the deceased person has wife, 2 sons and 2 daughters, then each gets 20% of the inheritance, unless there is a will stating otherwise. This is Hindu law, or common law....but not applicable on Indian Muslims, they have their own Muslim Personal Laws for such things like inheritance, marriage and divorce.

BTW, if the deceased person has wife and/or children, then the person's brother(s) have no right on the inheritance (in our law)....I think in Islam brothers also have a right, which might in fact be higher than the rights of the daughter(s) of the deceased person, correct me if I am wrong.
