In Gurdial Singh v. Jagir Kaur & Anr., the Supreme Court of India addressed the validity of a Will executed by Maya Singh, who owned 67 kanals 4 marlas of land and died on November 10, 1991. Gurdial Singh, his nephew, produced a Will dated May 16, 1991, bequeathing the entire property to him. Jagir Kaur, Maya Singh’s wife, contested the Will, asserting her legal entitlement as his surviving spouse. The Will made no mention of Jagir Kaur or any reason for disinheriting her, despite her living with Maya Singh until his death. While the Trial and First Appellate Courts upheld the Will, the High Court found it invalid due to suspicious circumstances. The Supreme Court affirmed the High Court's view, holding that the unexplained omission of the wife, absence of marital discord, her nomination for pension benefits, and the Will’s vague content raised legitimate doubts. The Court emphasized that a Will must be free from real, germane suspicion and reflect the testator’s free will. The appeal was dismissed, and Jagir Kaur was declared rightful heir.
