Daughter in law has can not claim any right over the self-acquired property of the in-laws. However with respect to the inherited property of the in-laws it is only son who has the right to claim. I would like to ask whether you have any child out of wed-lock and whether that on whose custody the child is at-present. Because child gets the right on the inherited property of the in-laws but not the wife.

A daughter in law has no right in the self-acquired and inherited property of her in parent-in-laws.
Her rights are confined to the properties owned either entirely by her or jointly by her and her husband.
