Can son be pressurized by law to keep his parents


27-Dec-2023 (In Family Law)
hi All, i am a Hindu man. recently my parents decided to sell their apartment and move to old-age home at their own will. they are not being forced, bullied or harassed to do so. i do not have any stake or interest in their money or property. in the future when they run out of energy, can i be forced by law to shelter them even if my circumstances don't allow? we faced multiple turmoil situations in the past, thus this query, any advise would help.

no if your parents are willing selling their appartment without any pressure and accordingly to their will and then want to go to old-age home then you are not responsible for it you can have an affidavit for it or on stamp paper written... for future legally...

The Punjab and Haryana high court has upheld the cancellation of property transfer from a senior citizen to her son by a single judge bench, observing that the children are expected to look after their elderly parents properly which is not only a value-based principle but a bounden duty as mandated by law.
