      dear sir.

      as i am along with my elder brother doing srartham for our parents. Now our elders are insisting to do seperately, but my brother is refusing since he want to do collectively at his residence.
      is it right doing alone or along with my brother.

        If a person has only daughters and no sons who will do the rites?
        That person who do final rites has to perform shrardham every year?
