Although there is no official data on inheritance claims made by women in India, only 13 percent of farmland is owned by women, according to the latest census data from 2011. More Hindu women are claiming their inheritance because of increases in property prices in the state of Delhi . Indian women have had equal inheritance rights since 2005 , but reports suggest many are unaware of that or have been pressured not to claim by male relatives. Now, however, male relatives want women to claim their share as prices in Haryana cities closest to Delhi have risen by three in 2005 . The increase is believed to have been caused by rising migrant numbers and improved transport links.
