Jeremy Bentham in his book “Theory of Legislation” wrote that the object of giving power to the owner to dispose off his property by testamentary disposition is to cure the imperfection or inability of law to satisfy individual demands which may be diverse. He states that “The law, not knowing individuals, cannot accommodate itself to the diversity of their wants. All that can be exacted from it is to offer the best possible chance of satisfying those wants. It is for each proprietor, who can and who ought to know the particular circumstances in which those dependent upon him will be placed upon his death, to correct the imperfection of law in all those cases which it cannot foresee. The power to make a will is an instrument intrusted to the hand of the individual, to prevent the private calamities” .
