In the scheme of the BNSS, 2023, for the purposes of setting criminal investigation
machinery into motion, offences are classified into two categories: (i) cognizable
offences and (ii) non-cognizable offences. In case of cognizable offences, a police
officer can arrest an accused without a warrant but in case of non-cognizable offences
he cannot arrest or investigate into such an offence without authorization in this behalf
by the magistrate. In case of cognizable offences, an F.I.R forms the basis for putting
the investigative machinery into motion. A general overall view of investigation will
be given to the students with special emphasis on the essentials of F.I.R and its
evidentiary value, police officer’s powers to investigate cognizable cases, procedure for
investigation, police officer’s powers to require attendance of witnesses, examination
of witnesses by the police, recording of confessions and statements and report of police
officer on completion of investigation.

on furnishing of surety. In case of non-bailable offences, bail is a matter of discretion
with the courts and the discretion becomes narrower depending upon the severity of the
punishment that an offence entails. How this discretion is to be exercised and what are
the principles governing grant of bail in such cases is discussed in the cases given

Family Law – II

Credits 6

(Hindu Law of Joint Family, Partition and Debts, Gifts and Wills, Muslim Law
of Gifts & Wills, Hindu Succession Act and Muslim General Principles of Inheritance)

Hindu law has the most ancient pedigree of any known legal system. Where, not modified or
abrogated by legislation, Hindu law may be described to be the ancient law of the Hindus rooted
in the Vedas and enounced in the Smritis as explained and enlarged in recognized commentaries
and digests and as supplemented and varied by approved usages. The concept of Hindu law is
deeply rooted in Hindu philosophy and Hindu religion. Till this day, no precise definition of
the word ‘Hindu’ is available in any statute or judicial pronouncement; it has defied all efforts
at definition. There are two main schools of Hindu law; viz. the Mitakshara school and the
Dayabhaga school or Bengal school. They have emerged in the eraof Digests and
Commentaries. The codified Hindu Law lays down uniform law for all Hindus. In the codified
areas of Hindu Law, there is no scope for existence of schools. The schools of Hindu law have
relevance only in respect of the un-codified areas of Hindu Law.

 PART - A : HINDU LAW OF JOINT FAMILY

Topic 1 : Joint Hindu Family and Hindu Coparcenary

The Mitakshara joint family is a unique contribution of Hindu law which has no parallel in any
ancient or modern system of law. Whatever the skeptic may say about the future of the Hindu
joint family, it has been, and still continues to be, the fundamental aspect of life of Hindus. In
Hindu law, there is a presumption that every family is a joint Hindu family. The males in a joint
Hindu family up to four generations from the last holder of the property are known as
coparceners and they acquire a right by birth in the joint Hindu family property. This group of
males is known as coparcenary. Hindu Succession (Amendment) Act 2005, confers on daughter
the same status as that of a son as coparcener in Hindu joint family.

Kinds and Sources of property: Coparcenary and separate property, Gift from paternal
ancestor and property inherited from maternal ancestor.
Karta -The position of karta in a joint Hindu family is sui-generis. Karta in a joint family
occupies a very important position. His position is so unique that there is no office or institution
in any other system of the world which is comparable with it. The Judicial Committee of the
Privy Council in Hunoomanpersaud Pandayv. Mussumat Babooee Munraj Koonweree
(1856) 6 Moore’s I.A. 393 had discussed the extent of karta’s power in relation to joint Hindu
family property.
(a) Concept of joint Hindu family and coparcenary under Mitakshara and Dayabhaga
law and their incidents.
(b) Karta- (i) Position (ii) Power
(c) Judicial and Legislative Trends- Position Before 2005
(d) Daughter as a Coparcener – Position After 2005
(e) Property in Hindu Law

8. Mrs. Sujata Sharma v. Shri Manu Gupta 226 (2016) DLT 647
 Topic 2 : Alienation of Joint Hindu Family Property

Ordinarily, neither karta nor any other coparcener singly possesses full power of alienation over
the joint family property or over his interest in the joint family property. It is now settled that
karta can alienate the joint Hindu family property in exceptional circumstances, i.e. legal
necessity and benefit of estate.
(a) Alienation by karta - sale, mortgage, gifts and wills
(b) Alienation by father
(c) Alienee’s rights duties and remedies
(d) Pious obligations of the son

Topic 3 : Partition

Partition means bringing the joint status to an end. On partition, the joint family ceases tobe
joint, and nuclear families or different joint families come into existence. There are members
of the joint family who can ask for partition and are entitled to a share also. There is another
category of the members of the joint family who have no right to partition but, ifpartition takes
place, they are entitled to share. A reunion can be made only between the parties to partition.

(b) Subject matter of partition
(c) Partition how effected

 PART - B : THE HINDU SUCCESSION ACT, 1956

The law of inheritance comprises rules which govern devolution of property, on the death of a
person, upon other persons solely on account of their relationship to the former. The Hindu
Succession Act came into force on 17 June 1956. It amends and codifies the law relating to
intestate succession among Hindus and brings about some fundamental and radical changes in
the law of succession. The Act lays down a uniform and comprehensive system of inheritance
and applies inter alia to persons governed by Mitakashara and Dayabhaga schools, as also to
those in certain parts of southern India who were previously governed by the
Murumakkattayam, Alyasanatana and Nambudri systems of Hindu law. The Act was last
amended in 2005, and has brought in major changes in the classical concept of coparcenary as
also in the class I heirs to the property of a male intestate.

Topic 4: General Introduction & Application of The Hindu Succession Act, 1956

Learning Objectives
The course aims to develop the knowledge of quantitative tools for decision-making and to prepare for the
application of these tools in different organizational settings. The focus of the course is to train the students
in the mathematical formulation of real-life business problems and apply quantitative approaches to find
optimal solutions.

Learning Outcomes
On completion of the course, students will be able to:
1. Understand the decision-making process under different business situations and the role of
quantitative analysis in the decision-making process.
2. Learn the quantitative approaches to find optimum solutions to various business problems
constrained by the availability of resources and understand the sensitivity of various decision
variables, resource limitation on the solution obtained through quantitative approaches.
3. Ensure prudent and cost-effective decision-making in transportation and assignment problems.
4. Learn various models of Inventory management and application of game theory in deciding
business strategies.
5. Work on project scheduling and controlling problems using PERT and CPM technique.
