What happens if there are two wills?


The contents of both Wills need to be checked.

The subsequent Will made at latter date shall overcome the previous Will and the second Will shall be considered valid, however if the two Wills have different subjects matter namely in each of the Will the property or wealth identified and given to a particular beneficiary and in the second Will different property or wealth identified and given to another beneficiary, then both Will shall be considered valid for the mentioned property or wealth to particular named beneficiary.

Does caste change after marriage?

* A woman’s caste does not change after marriage. Caste is determined by birth. By default , the father’s caste is the child's caste. Marriage does not alter the caste of someone. So, OBC lady cannot become a SC just because she married a SC male. However, the children of them will belong to SC as the father is a SC. However, there are certain exception in case child of such wedlock ( father UR but mother Reserved) who is raised in reserved community and separated or absence of father presence, he may be treated reserved as per mother caste. There are many exceptions : 1. When orphan child is adopted by mother of reserve caste. 2.

What is the difference between 'sin' and 'offence' ?

Sin is an immoral, bad, unethical and unlawful thing in the eyes of society.  Offence is an unlawful and illegal act or omission which is punishable by the law.  Adultery, prostitution, sex before marriage, eating animals these some of things are considered as sin in the Indian society. But sin is not punishable by the law. The man who commits sin is responsible to the god.  Murder, rape, bigamy, theft, violation of traffic rules these are the some offences. These offences are punishable by law with capital punishment, imprisonment or by fine.  Sin is not a crime. The role of police and judge starts when sin becomes an offence. When it's a sin, it can not be questioned. Police and judge can not take cognizance of sin. A person responsible for sin is answerable before the Supreme Lord of the universe on the day of judgement.
