After the death of your wife,if she died without then the property will devolve to your son. So even he gives you no objection you cannot transfer or sell the property. However he can issue POA in your favour and in the said POA a clause explicitly state he gives authority to sell the property and collect the money.

you and your son have the rights to transfer the property to the sister in law,first you have to get trasnferred in your names and then by way of gift deed you can gift the same to your sister in law.Noc is of no use ,you both can appoint a poa TO EXCUTE THE gift deed.
