Legal guardian and care taker
3 years ago
I am living in Kerala. My name is Unnikrishnan (50) married and father of two boys.
I have only one brother and his name is Madhu. He also married and they have only one boy(11yrs)
We got some land after the partition of our joint family's ancient property. I got some land on my name. My brother Madhu got some land and our old house also on his own name.
Madhu died (cardiac arrest) one year ago. Shockingly his wife Mrs.Jayashree also died in an tragic accident, one month ago. Their 11 year old child lost his father and mother.
Now, the boy under custody of Jayashree's mother (Grandmother of the minor).
Now l have three questions to you to clear our legal doubts.
1) Who will be the legal guardian of the minor child?
2) Who will be the legal care taker of Madhu's property, until the child become major?
3) What is my legal rights as Madhu's only one brother, on the minor child and the property until the minor become major?
Thanking you
Sincerely
