A Will, which is a testamentary document, has to be proved as per the provisions contained in Section 63 of the Indian Succession Act, 1925, read with Sections 67 and 68 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872. Thus, a bare inspection of the said section would indicate the manner in which a Will has to be executed for it to be recognized as a valid Will, which includes that the testator shall sign the Will in a manner to give effect to the said Will and the said Will shall be attested by two or more witnesses, each of them being the witness that the testator had signed the said Will. 4. A coalesce reading of Sections 67 and 68 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872 shows that if a document is alleged to be signed by the person, the signature is to be proved to be of that person and the attestation of the Will has to be proved through at least one attesting witness. 5. The present Will has been proved by the said Executor Mr. Debabrata Bhattacharyya and also by one of the attesting witness of the Will Mr. Shubhendu Sen as the same would appear from the examination-in-chief.
