“This is an initiative to help the vulnerable in the community considering the complexity of succession matters. We have included local administrators as parts of this to enable them handle these cases more precisely,” she said.
Locals said succession cases have for a long time denying them right to legally access land and other properties which has made them vulnerable to corruption.
“Some delays are caused by mistake of administrators to properly write and document succession documents,” she said.
She explained that some of the letters done in land succession and title deed acquisition cases have ended up in court where wrong decisions have been rendered denying windows, vulnerable, the disabled and orphans the right to own properties.

He urged the local administrators to utilise the education acquired from the judiciary and lands personnel to help them in collecting and processing the succession cases.
