Daughters in Jammu & Kashmir retain their property inheritance rights even after marriage.

Earlier a Kashmiri girl lost all property inheritance rights if she married a person who was not domiciled in Kashmir, or specifically if he did not possess the dubious PRC (Permanent Resident Certificate) of Kashmir. This racket is now over with the abrogation of Art 370 and Art 35A. Women across Jammu & Kashmir are quite happy at retaining their right to property even if they are married and settled outside the Jammu & Kashmir.
