Regarding Grand Father's Property
Sir, My Grand father was with us till our Father died in the year 2012 April 4th. After the death of My father, My Grand Father started living with My Fathers Sister. And My Grand Father Died this month March 5th 2018. Now my Aunt is not giving us any information regarding My grand Father's money in his saving account and the Nominee details. My grand father is a wealthy man and He took My Father's retirement Money ( My father is a Voluntary retired railway employee ) after My father's death and Said He will give later. Now we are in confusion on how to proceed further on this. Please give us a helpful advice. My grand father is a retired railway Employee.

Since she is not disclosing anything to you, you need to file a case with a death certificate of ur grandfather and bring a suit of partition against your aunt
And on the base of your knowledge and papers file a partition suit
However if you try to go in criminal for your relief you might send your aunt in judicial custody but won't get your grandfather's property
1)you can approach bank where grand father had bank account and obtain details of nomination made of saving account if any
2) please note nominee is only trustee for legal heirs
3)apply for and obtain succession certificate in respect of money lying in saving account in name of legal heirs
4) contact a local lawyer
Sir, I have already Sent an RTI letter to railway office with the help of RTI convenor so that I can get bank details from there and after receiving bank account Number I will send RTI letter to bank for information regarding Amount, Nominee and other particulars. But Problem Here is when i visited a local lawyer in our place He said already we are in filing a case regarding A gift deed which my grand father has gifted to My father and the lawyer said we will get the property what is gifted to My father as legal heirs but the local lawyer says regarding the bank account details and Liquid cash this is waste of time to enquire. But My father Asked us to take the Money from My grand father and told that All His retired Money he kept with his father and before My grand fathers death My Grand father also said the same but Now My Aunt is not allowing us to talk to her regarding any details. She is Just ignoring us. Thank you all for your valuable answers.

Hi,
If you know the bank details, please file applications for stopping transaction of bank accounts and you may file cases against the father's sister also.
Dear Sir,
Get death certificate of your father and heir-ship certificate and approach the concerned employer that is railway department and bank authorities to provide informations. Since you are a son so you can get all information required and you need not file applications under RTI and wait for 40 days. In the meanwhile file a representations before the bank to freeze the amounts therein of your father and grandfather till a Court finding is given. You will get success provided you include the bank accounts of your father and grandfather and claim half share in the said liquidated amounts.
1. You shall have to trace out your grandfather's movable and immovable properties first and yopu can not force your Aunt to share the said information with you.
2. When your grandfather was with you he might have operated his Bank account from your place and from his bank of your place, you can trace out where he has got his accounts transferred.
3. Once the movable and immovable properties are traced, you can file a partition suit claiming share of your father of your grandfather's property.
1. When your father had got the amount from Railways, he had deposited it with his bank account.
2. If he has given the said money to his father, then mostly he has transferred the said amount to his father's account.
3. After making scrutiny of your father's account and also after investigating with the bank you are expected to trace your grandfather's accounts.
4. Banks might not divulge personal details of its account holders. You shall have to manage the information from them unofficially by developing rapport to further act on the matter.
You should have some evidence stating that money was given to grandfather from father. You need to file recovery suit for the same
Without knowing any detail how will you claim any share in the money that your paternal aunt is reported to have taken away from your grandfather.
Why did you allow your grandfather to migrate to your paternal aunt's house after your father's death?
Your paternal aunt may claim that you people driven him away out of your home after your father's death and it was she who took care of him during his last years hence you people may not have any rights to demand anything from her her and also fui she denies that he had not left any money at the time of his death or that all his monies have been spent on his health and taking care, then also you cannot do anything without any evidence.
You collect evidence for all those things what you say now and then initiate any legal action if there is any.
You cannot get bank account details and the amount held in the account of an individual through RTI act.
If you can find out the documents for the property that was gifted by a registered deed, you may try to take possession of that property or to file a suit for possession and declaration of title to that property as per law.
