Female’s alienation rights (post-1944 amendment):

A. As original allottee
B. As if inherited from last male
C. As Collector granted
D. Always absolute
Correct Answer: B. As if inherited from last male

This question delves into the evolution of women's property rights, specifically their alienation rights concerning land, following a significant amendment. The correct answer is As if inherited from last male. Historically, women's rights to alienate agricultural land were often restricted. The 1944 amendment aimed to liberalize these rights by equating a female holder's power of alienation to that of a male heir. This meant she could dispose of the property with the same scope and limitations as if she had inherited it from the last male owner, significantly enhancing her control over the land compared to previous, more restrictive provisions.

  • As original allottee might imply more restrictive conditions tied to the initial grant.
  • As Collector granted suggests discretionary power, not a general legal right.
  • Always absolute is incorrect, as even these expanded rights might still have had certain legal or customary limitations.
