In this Legislation Review, the Author has explained how Section 15 of the Hindu Succession Act violates Articles 14 and 15 of the Indian Constitution, rendering it unconstitutional. This has been done in light of a recent petition to the Supreme Court. While the Act claims that the order of inheritance is based on the proximity of the relationship, Section 15 does not adhere to this principle. This also goes against the principles of justice, equity, and good conscience. Thus a new scheme for Section 15 has been proposed.
