Dear Sir,

Under Section 372 of Indian Succession Act an application may be filed for issuance of succession certificate by Court. All the sons will be arrayed as respondents and if not found a notification in newspapers will be published and the sons will be placed ex-parte then the Court will proceed and issue succession certificate.

Your mother shall apply for succession certificate on the basis of the information and documentary evidences available with her.

She should not make a reference about the people who she never saw or knowing any information about them.

If she had not seen them or met them anytime in her life then it can be safely concluded that his sons are are any other relatives are nothing but some imaginary characters hence she can safely ignore them and obtain legal heirship certificate only for herself.

Let she not inform the society about any such thing existed.

Let she get legal heirship certificate from revenue department and give an indemnity to the society undertaking to abide by the rules and law in this regard in case of any legal issue that may arise at an later stage.
