Married daughters blackmailing for property how to deal with it

There is a new rule by the top court of law, that if the children are not supporting their parents at old age then parents have every right to throw them off. There is nothing to worry. Detailed discussion is necessary.

First i have to know, whether the properties in question are in your name or not. If it is an ancestral property then there is nothing much you can do to prevent your daughters from claiming their shares. However, if the property belongs to you, as in it is your name and basically means self acquired, then you are safe. Your daughters don't have any rights over your self acquired property (for defining self acquired property need a detailed explanation) and as such they cannot pressurize you in giving into their demands. So, i would suggest the best way to deal with your property, in the event you don't want a single share out of it to go to any one of your daughters, is make a gift out of the same and give it to the person you desire to have it gifted to, in this case i assume it is your son. Now, you might be asking the question, why not make a will and leave it to my son. the reason i am not suggesting that option (even though is considerably cheaper that making a gift deed) is because, upon your demise, in order for your son to have all the rights in respect of your properties be transferred in his name, he has to take out a probate application before the court. in this process, probate will only be granted if nobody objects to such grant of probate. and in the situation if an objection is raised, the case turn into a contested probate matter and this will involve multiple round of litigation which i feel is not the thing your and/or the your son is looking for.

You can either gift your assets to the person of your choice or make will and get it registered before the registry office after proper authentication and in presence of two witnesses who are not family members like your son or daughters

There is three process.
One is to Gift entire property to your son. After it the property belong to your son. But in future, your daughters may file Case for challenge the Gift Deed.
Another way to sell your property to any third person and amount send to your son. In this case your daughter did not arise any claim.
Third way is to Sell your Property to the wife of your son and after it if she Mutate the property in her name then entire property has been transferred and your daughters do not raise any sort of claims
