Is giving GPA destroys my right to property


05-Jul-2023 (In Property Law)
Our ancestral property is held by my father's elder brother. He wants to execute a general power of attorney in his son's name. My father passed away 10 years ago. Now,if that GPA is executed,my right over my share of property remains same? Is my signature needed to execute this GPA? We are bound by Hindu Law.Property is in a rural area.

First of all, why should you execute GPA in favor of your cousin brother...? He can let out the property to someone for 50 or 80 years. What of he done so. Absolutely there is no problem by GPA to your share.

Sir, As you informed, you father has equal right over the said property. Your father's elder brother can deal with his portion of the shared property not of your father property. He can execute the GPA , in respect of his share over the property not your share. your signature is not required. Because he cant execute GPA for whole property that he don't have absolute right over the same. he can execute GPA only for his shared portion not to your father portion.
