When was this document executed and registered?

If it is more than three years, then the cancellation may not be entertained by court of law.

From your contents it can be seen that your mother was not eligible for any property from her grandmother because your uncle has inherited the property in the capacity of legal heir to the deceased.

The women property cannot become ancestral property for claiming rights in it by the coparceners.

Check the property is ancestral or not .

Properties inherited from mother, grandmother, uncle and even brother is not ancestral property. Property inherited by will and gift are not ancestral properties. Self acquired property on the other hand can become ancestral property only if it is thrown into the pool of ancestral properties and enjoyed in common. This is a matter to be determined on the facts and circumstances of the case.

Challenge the newly created document and signature .There is a limitation period hit on your query if the document created more than three years

1. This constitutes the offence of forgery and cheating with criminal breach of trust, so a criminal complaint may be filed under 200 CrPC.

2. You have to file a civil suit for declaration of the instrument of transfer i.e GPA as illegal on the ground that it is forged and hence liable to be declared as such. The civil court alone can cancel the document.

3. Consult a lawyer with complete set of documents to get a concrete opinion.

If he is creating a trust through a will bequeathing the properties to the trust through this will, it can be enforced after his death.

If the property is in his possession and he has marketable title, then his legal heirs do not have any right in it during his lifetime and after the will come into force, hence the bequest made through the will shall become operative.

The relatives or legal heirs if made trustees of will property trust, then they can legally acquire the property but can be trustees only.
