Interesting and informative. It DOES NOT MATTER if it's a mere Rs 15,000 or Rs 15,000 crores -Nobody should be CHEATED OF THEIR INHERITANCE. Hence, writing a WILL is IMPORTANT to establish OWNERSHIP, and trusting even close relatives with something like Power of attorney is RECKLESS.

[@padmavathimusunuri]

The Royal Families signed an instrument of ascension with India and then govt established a list of private properties which solely belong to Royal families and the rest will be vested with the govt. That was the agreement between kingdoms and Indian govt. We can't suddenly tell them to give their property.

[@harshitasingh7350]

The royal property should stay with the royal families because its their blood, their legacy and it strongly represent our culture . So rather than some government sectors entirely overtaking it its better that they only get certain share according to the legal rights.

[@KhaasLog2023]

What a chutiya logic! The erstwhile Kings had to fight several battles and sacrifice their blood. They didn't get to own these Mahals without paying the price. It's easy to say now while chilling on your sofa.
