The former, who succeeded to the estate his death as his senior widow, died on 24 March 1896 and on her death Janki Kuer became entitled to possession. Since it was found that she was unable to administer the estate, its management was taken over by the Court of Wards in Bihar in 1897. Janki Kuer, who was a limited holder of the estate, died on 27 November 1954.
