Serving as a will witness entails significant responsibilities and legal obligations. According to the Indian Succession Act, 1925 and the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, a will must be signed by the testator (the person making the will) and witnessed by at least two individuals. Each witness must personally observe the testator signing or marking the will and then sign it in the testator’s presence. The law requires that at least one of the attesting witnesses be examined to prove the validity of the will, emphasizing the crucial role of witnesses in ensuring the will’s legality.
