in absence of nomination filled in by the deceased you wont be allowed to access the locker unless you obtain succession certificate from court
Yes, general legal notice will not do. He will have to apply for Succession Certificate.
File suit for grant of succession certificate only then you will get rights to operate the locker.
Since both are dead and have not nominated any body, their legal heirs can get succession certificate through court. When the legal heirs submit succession certificate to the Bank, the Bank gives access to the legal heirs to the locker.
Get succession certificate then give them a written application for oprate the locker. It will be better option
