  3. U.N. General Assembly • The year 1999 was the International Year of the Older Persons. • “ 1st October” as the International Day for the Elderly, later rechristened as the International Day of the Older Persons. • 18 principles which are organized into 5 clusters, namely-independence, participation, care, self-fulfillment, and dignity of the older persons.

  4. Problems Of The Aged: • Economic problems, include such problems as loss of employment, income deficiency and economic insecurity. • Physical and physiological problems, include health and medical problems, nutritional deficiency, and the problem of adequate housing etc. • Psycho-social problems, includes related with their psychological and social maladjustment as well as the problem of elder abuse etc.

  5. WILL • Will is an instrument through which testator write about his bequeath of property • Person making a Will is known as 'testator’ • The process of distribution taking place is known as 'Testamentary' succession • If person dies without making WILL than devolution of property of such a person after his death is known as 'Intestate succession’. • In India, laws governing such intestate succession are the Indian Succession Act, 1925, (I.S. Act) Hindu Succession Act, 1956 and Mohammedan Law.

  6. WILL • Domicile of a deceased is relevant in case of movable property • Location of a property is relevant in case of Will • Intestate succession as per personal laws: 1. Faith of a person 2. The distribution depends on male, female • Class I, Class II, Agnates and Cognates

  7. WILL • Testator : a person making a Will. • Legatee or beneficiary : a person to whom property is given under the Will. • Legacy : a benefit under the Will. • Executor : a person appointed by the testator to execute the Will as per the provisions of the Will. • Attestation : an act of witnessing the execution of the Will. • Administrator : a person appointed by a competent authority to administer the estate when no executor is appointed or an executor appointed refuses to act as an executor.

  8. WILL • Probate : a copy of a Will certified under the seal of a Court of competent jurisdiction with a grant of administration to the estate. • Codicil : a document which modifies or alters the provisions of the original Will and forms part of it. • Letter of Administration : a letter of the court appointing an administrator to the estate. • Succession Certificate : as issued by a Civil Court of competent jurisdiction in respect of the property of a person who has died intestate, that is without making a Will and where letter of administration or probate is not compulsory.

  9. WILL • WILL needs to be in writing. • No form is prescribed in law. • WILL needs to be signed or marked as such. • Witness by two persons. • Legatee or beneficiary can be any person, born, unborn or dead. In case if dead it will pass on to legal heirs. • Property past, present, future. • Self acquired, gifted or bequeathed. • Executor of the WILL. Not more than four is a practice.

  10. WILL

  11. Revocation or Alteration in WILL can be made at anytime during life time. • Codicil: Codicil is an addendum to original WILL. • No stamp duty is payable on execution of a Will. A Will can be made on a plain paper. • Registration of a Will is optional. If desired it can be registered with the Sub-Registrar of Assurances office . Registration grants protection and secrecy to a Will. • Deposit : Will can be deposited at option of the testator with any person of his choice including Sub-Registrar of Assurances. • Probate : A probate is the grant of administration of the estate by the court of competent jurisdiction on the basis of Will.

  12. A probate provides the conclusive evidence (i) of the execution of a Will (ii) of the legacies and (iii) of the legal character of legatees by confirming validity of a Will. It can be granted only to an executor. • Obtaining a probate is not compulsory in cases of a Hindu and a Mohammedan • A maximum court fee of Rs 75,000 is payable in the state of Maharashtra for obtaining a probate. View taken that there is exemption in the said State where the Will is to be administered by an executrix (a lady executor) is a grey area. No time limit is prescribed for filing an application for probate.

  13. Letter of Administration • A letter of administration can be obtained from the court of competent jurisdiction • Where the executor appointed under a Will refuses to act or where he has died before or after proving the Will but before administration of the estate.

  25. Constitutional and Legal provisions including Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007

  26. Why a Law for taking care of our parents and elders is required? We, in India, used to start our day by bowing at the feet of our parents and elders in our traditional system. Our elders were normally taken care of by one and all in the joint family scenario.

  27. Why a Law for taking care of our parents and elders is required? With the withering away of the joint family system and emergence of the nuclear families we seldom find time or mind to devote for our parents and elders. The result is that a large number of parents are not only deprived of the care and love from their children, but also exposed to emotional neglect and lack of physical and financial support.

  28. Constitutional Provision • In the Constitution of India, Article 15 (3) provides for making any special provision for women and children which will not be hit by the fundamental right of equality. • Article 39 contained in part IV containing Directive Principles of State Policy relates to securing citizens, men and women the right to an adequate means of living.

  29. Constitutional Provision • Article 41 contained in part IV obliges the State to make effective provision within the limits of its economic capacity and development for securing protection, interalia, in the old age.

  30. Constitutional Provision • The Parliament as well as the State Legislatures are competent to make laws for providing social security and social insurance, employment and unemployment (entry 23 of List III – Concurrent List in the VIIth Schedule to the Constitution)

  31. Legal Provision • In order to prevent our parents and elders especially at the dusk of their lives and other family members including wife, child (legitimate or illegitimate) from resorting to vagrancy and wandering for their daily needs, section 125 CrPC was enacted, which ensures the social security and justice.

  32. Legal Provision • CPC provides for grant of monthly allowance for the maintenance of wife, children, parents etc., in case they are unable to maintain themselves. • CPC also provides for interim order.

  33. Legal Provision • Personal laws in the Hindu adoption and maintenance act 1956, Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 and Muslim personal law also provide for maintenance in case of need.

  34. Legal Provision • The procedure under section 125 Cr PC is time consuming and cumbersome in addition to being expensive. Taking a clue and inspired by the “Himachal Pradesh Maintenance of Parents and Dependents Act, 2001, the Parliament enacted the 2007 act for making the claim for maintenance simpler speedier and less expensive.

  35. The Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007 • Parents • Senior citizen • Welfare • Maintenance of Parents and Senior Citizens • Obligation of the children or relative
