Before the 1956 Act, daughter's were having no right to their father's property.  In 1956, the Hindu Succession Law came about. It made the succession laws uniform. However, this law too favoured the male heirs. People thought that a daughter would get married and become part of someone else's family, and hence, giving her share in the property would alienate the property. To stop the Act's discrimination against women and enact a gender-neutral law, an amendment was done to the Hindu Succession Act, 1956. The Hindu Succession Act, 2005 (the 'Amendment Act') was enacted, which gave daughters a right to their parent's property. Thereafter two more amendments have been done in the Act in 2020 and recently on January 22. This video explains the daughter's right in the property of father and various amendments of the same.
