hi alocious here, I can well understand your concern from the query raised, the first wife and her children are are entitled for legal heirship, it is to be noted the children of the second wife as deemed by you are still the legal heirs of the deceased husband, however the second wife is not the legal heir only the children, you can file a objection to the revenue depart
ment and remove her name, thank you, you can

In case of a second wife, she cannot be a legal heir. The children of both wives have equal rights. However, the second wife could be brought on record only after the death of the first wife or divorce decree passed by the competent court.
