Mumbai-based Shailendra Dubey, who works as partner at Plan My Estate Advisors LLP, speaks about the right time to write a Will and much more.
Neither do I have that kind of wealth nor am I old enough to write a Will? came a quick reply when I asked Yash, have you written your Will? This was around six months back when two friends met after 21 years, courtesy a school reunion. Yash was very curious and had numerous questions when he learnt that I am into Estate Planning advisory.

The Karnataka High Court on Tuesday upheld hijab ban by dismissing petitions filed by a section of Muslim students from the Government Pre-University Girls College in Udupi seeking permission to wear hijab inside classrooms.
The court upheld the state government ban by saying, The prescription of school uniforms is a reasonable restriction.
The court further said hijab was not an essential religious practice in Islam. However, the petitioners are likely to challenge the ban in the Supreme Court.
“Met my clients in Hijab matter in Udupi. Moving to SC soon In sha Allah. These girls will In sha Allah continue their education while exercising their rights to wear Hijab. These girls have not lost hope in Courts and Constitution,” lawyer Anas Tanwir wrote in a tweet.
The court was answering three key questions on the controversy namely:
1. Whether wearing hijab is an essential religious practice in Islamic faith protected under Article 25?
2. Whether prescription of school uniform is violative of rights
3. Whether government order on February 5 was issued without application of mind and manifestly arbitrary?
A three judge bench comprising Chief Justice Ritu Raj Awasthi, Justice Krishna S Dixit and Justice JM Khazi delivered their verdict on the ongoing hijab controversy at 10.30 am today.
Ahead of the hijab row verdict, Section 144 was imposed in Bangalore and educational institutions remained closed.

However, the remission of his life imprisonment is pending before the President of India. AG Perarivala was serving life sentence and was jailed for almost 32 years.
Granting him bail, the court, in its order, said: Since Perarivalan has already undergone sentence for more than 30 years, we are of the considered view that he is entitled to bail in spite of the vehement opposition by the Additional Solicitor General Additional KM Nataraj.
