High Court’s Verdict: A Turning Point In The Jagan-Sharmila Property Dispute

Friday, November 22, 2024

Currently, a controversy between YS Jagan and his sister YS Sharmila over the properties from the YSR Congress Party is making huge headlines in Andhra Pradesh. Debate revolves around whether the properties would be handed over to Sharmila or handed over to Jagan. The High Court recently interfered in the matter over the rights of married daughters, which would clarify some very important things and heavily influence the conflict going on between the two siblings.

Very recently, the High Court judgment elaborated on the matter concerning compassionate appointments and extended gender biases against women present in the procedure. Here, the court stated that nothing in the rights of a married daughter to property with her family can be impaired due to marriage or absconding from the family house. It was specified that a compassionate appointment will not be made favorably on one gender against another. A married daughter will not lose her rights upon marriage.

The High Court categorically opined that there should not be any discrimination between males and females in matters of compassionate appointments. Further, it clarified that the daughter is never separated from her parent’s family after her marriage and thus making the son and daughter equal for the purpose of such appointment. In this case, it reveals that the court acknowledges that daughters, irrespective of marital status, are always a part of their family.

While accusing Jagan of trying to gain his share of the family’s assets in an illegal way, this judgment will be a lifeline for Sharmila to battle out her legal battle against her sibling. It is likely to have significant and far-reaching consequences for not only the YS family but also the debate regarding women’s equality in terms of property rights in the state.
