A gram panchayat in Latur district of Maharashtra has passed a resolution stating that not taking care of elderly parents will result in their sons and daughters-in-law losing inheritance property rights.

Apart from village sarpanch Sukumar Lokre, the meeting was also attended by an agriculture assistant, village development officer and villagers.
“Village development officer Keshav Madiboyne read out the previous minutes. After that, issues such as removing encroachment from the main road and chowks in the village, providing a graveyard for the Lingayat community, building a community temple, supplying drinking water, making roads free of encroachment, and stopping illegal liquor trade were discussed and decisions were taken,” Sindalkar said.
The meeting also discussed the issue of elderly parents being not looked after by their sons and daughters-in-law, he said.
“It was decided to deny the benefits of government schemes to those children who don’t take care of their elderly parents. A resolution was passed unanimously to not register names of the sons under inheritance rights in the gram panchayat records who don’t take care of their parents,” deputy Sarpanch said.
He claimed this resolution is being welcomed in Latur district.
