Additionally, climate change causing Glacial Lake Outburst Floods (GLOF), seismic vulnerability from the 2015 earthquake, and unscientific urbanization combined with deforestation have exacerbated the situation.

Under the Hindu Succession Act 1956, if a man dies without a will, his property first goes to Class I heirs (wife, children, and mother). If no Class I heirs exist, it moves to Class II heirs. In Class II, the father has priority over siblings. Siblings only inherit property if the father is also not alive. For ancestral property, daughters have equal rights as sons after the 2005 amendment. Creating a will is recommended to avoid legal complications and disputes among family members regarding property distribution. https://kannada.news18.com/photogallery/business/property-rights-no-wife-or-children-who-inherits-property-of-man-siblings-rights-india-hmg-2480566.html
