Succession to tenancy allotted to female devolves on nominee from her issue or male agnates of person based on whose ___ tenancy allotted:

Foundational Concept: Succession laws for tenancies, especially those allotted under specific schemes, often link the devolution of rights back to the original basis of the allotment, ensuring that the purpose of the original allotment is respected in subsequent transfers.

• Correct Option (B) Services: In many land allotment schemes, particularly those related to agricultural land or specific government programs, tenancies are allotted to individuals (including females) in recognition of their services (e.g., military service, public service). Therefore, the succession often devolves based on the person whose services led to the original allotment, ensuring the lineage connected to that service benefits.
• Distractors: (A) Payment is not typically the primary basis for succession in such specific allotment cases. (C) A request is merely an application, not the underlying reason for the allotment. (D) While succession is about inheritance, the *basis* for the original allotment is not “inheritance” itself.
