Bill to be introduced for ensuring women's right to inherit property
2019-05-01
[DAWN] Special Assistant to Prime Minister (SAPM) on Information Firdous Ashiq Awan on Tuesday said that a bill that seeks to enforce women's rights to property will be introduced by the government to help ensure women get their due share in inheritance.
"As long as an adult male makes the right decisions as trustee"
Awan was addressing a news conference along with Minister of Water Resources Faisal Vawda after a cabinet meeting chaired by Prime Minister Imran Khan
... aka Taliban Khan, who is the lightweight's lightweight...
She said that the government wanted to provide women with their fair share in inheritance and ensure that they are not cheated out of their rights.

Citing other discussions from the cabinet meeting, she said amendments in the code of civil procedure will help decide the civil cases swiftly. Similarly, the succession certificates will now be issued by the National Database and Registration Authority (Nadra) and heirs would be able to procure them within two weeks, instead of going through courts for years.
