• I want to claim on my property

Hi
My father has 2sons(including me). I am the second person in the family. We both are married and my brother wants me to leave the house which we are leaving now.
As per the property documents, I came to know that the land belongs to my grandfather, after his death the sons of my grandfather (including my father) had made the partition. And in linked documents, its clearly mentioned that the land was purchased by my grandfather. 
Here is my question : 
1. can I have rights to fight on the property which we are leaving now. 
2. If yes under which section should I fight (i don't have money to pay for the lawyer). I want to fight on my own.

Is your father alive??

The property is solely of your father he can distribute it according to his will neither you nor your brother can claim it.

In case your father has died imtestat without any will than you will have equal right on the property as your brother.

And the property shall be distributed among legal heirs of father.

But if he is alive he can transfer sale gift or make will of property in favour of any person he wants.

1. This depends. Incase this house has vested upon your father post the partition, this house has become the self acquired property of your father and neither you nor your brother can stake a claim upon this property during his lifetime. If the position is to the contrary, you've as much locus as your brother to reside in this house.

2. File an injunction suit seeking a restraint order against your brother restraining him from dispossessing you from this house.

If the partition deed is registered and it was done by your grandfather then it loses ancestral character. If it is partitioned by your father and his brothers after death of your grandfather without a will then such partition is bad in law and you can claim share In property. File a civil suit under order VII Rule 1&2 CPC claiming partition and also file an application for injunction restraining them from disposing off the property. It's better to appoint a lawyer rather than fighting your own case or ask court to give aid of legal services authority that is government lawyer to fight your case.

Yes you have right as it's a ancestral property.

No it is not correct they need to make you party.

You can file the same in civil court and take permanent injunction. Don't leave the possession of the said house.

You can divide it internally too. But in your case judicial partition is better.

You can file the same in civil court by making all the related persons party.

1. After the death of your grandfather your father inherited his share in his father's property by a partition. Subsequently he becomes the absolute owner of the property. Neither you nor anyone can claim any share in it as a right at least not during his lifetime.
