How to inherit property of grandfather's brother who has no heirs

234 votes

As we understand your situation, 

It is that you and your father only took care of the grandfather's cousin who died without Will and without any legal heirs. Now you wish to divest his share to yourself as no other cousin of your grandfather helped you to take care of him.

Our inference of your situation is that,

There is no law that provides that the share should be divested to you as you took care of him/her.

The only possible outcome of your problem is that the property will be equally divided amongst the remaining cousins of the grandfather and grandfather.

Thereafter you will be entitled from the share of your grandfather.

You will have to contact your illaqa patwari and tehisldar and to make him application for virasat.( inheritance). This is the way to get your self enrolled in revenue record for the purpose of inheritance. Various other formalities like to file affidavit and to disclose about other heirs would be there.
