You should seek copy of registered document of dale deed executed by your mother's brother also you should seek title search report from sub registrar's office.

You should check from record how the mutuation of the property is done. Check whether name of your mother and her sisters is there or not in title. If it is done illegally the name need to be challange and complaint has to be filed.

Dear Client,

File partition suit without delay and on the basis of false news paper advertisement, stay will be granted on sale of properties. Also, cancellation of sale already done.

On the basis of paper cutting, case of cheating also maintainable against ur MAMAs.

There is always a remedy.

It seems to be ancestral property and your GM was holding the title after your GF. In law, the daughters are treated as coparceners by birth as per S.6 of the Hindu Succession Act, 2005. If your GM is alive, then the proper course for daughters is to file a suit for partition, separate possession and restrain the brothers from alienating the property in any means.

They have to cause a legal notice to your GM, brothers that they were shocked to see an ad intended to cheat the public. Along with the legal heir certificate, they can also file a complaint in the local police station for an offence under cheating(420) and dishonest removal of property to prevent distribution among creditors (421).

1. Few things need to be known first.

Whether your grsnd father transferred his property to your grand mother's name by way of a registered deed?

Whether your grandmother is now dead or alive?

2. If your grandfather transferred his property to his wife by a registered deed and his wife is no more now then on her dearh all 7 children will acquire share in the property equally.

3. Now to claim her due share in the property your mother will have to file a suit for partition and to restrain her brothers from selling the joint property further seek interim injunction.

4. So meet a local advocate and take the things forward as per the advice stated above.

Dear Sir,

Your mother can file suit for partition and to declare such sale deeds as not binding upon the sisters. Family heirship cannot be denied by your mamas. Please call me.

Hello,

The same is illegal.

Challenge such sale deed before the civil court and file a suit for perpetual injunction.

You have a rightful share on the land and the same must be claimed by your mother and her sister.

This property belonged to your grandfather who is reported to have died intestate.

Upon his death the property devolved equally on his own legal heirs namely his wife and seven children.

If your paternal uncles have sold or trying to sell the properties without the consent of their sisters, then it is illegal

Your mother and her sisters have to file a partition suit and seek partition and separate possession of their legitimate share in the property which will include the properties that have been sold without their knowledge and consent

Yes it's illegal you can get an injunction for the same. If sale is happened the deeds will be cancelled. You can approach the court with that advertisement and other evidences.
