If the previous Sebait (caretaker of Devottar property) has passed away, the new Sebait is usually appointed based on the founder’s wishes written in a deed or by family inheritance. If there’s no clear rule or if there’s a dispute, the matter can be taken to court to appoint a suitable person to manage the property.
