Hello,

File a partition suit and then claim a share in the property.

Before filing the same you will have to obtain a succession certificate.

Apply for letters of administration in name of legal heirs

2) you have equal share in deceased father property as you were not given in adoption to uncle

3) there has to be giving and taking ceremony which was not done in your case

4) there has to be deed of adoption executed

5) succession certificate is for movable debts and securities

"1.You can obtain a Succession Certificate through your Taluk / Thasildhar or through the District Civil Court of your area.

2. As per the Hindu Succession Act, if a male dies intestate then properties of him will be distributed amongst hus legal heirs, as per the provisions of the Act."

1) You have to prove in the court and first get injunction on the property acquired by your brother.

2) First of all you should apply for name change in the Government Gazette, than Gazette will give advertisements in the online website and news paper, take this certificate of change in name. Than apply for PAN and Aadhaar card etc.

3) After getting name change on all government documents than you can apply for legal heirs and succession certificate. Once you receive certificate from court you will get your share in the property.

Please note what is name mentioned in birth certificate if it is of biological father then you can file a suit for partition and separate possession of the property. Let them prove whether you were adopted by uncle or not.

Better file a suit for partition and also for injunction restraining them from selling property. You are entitled to 1/6th share in property of your father.

1. If no religious or legal adoption had taken place then your Uncle can not be called as your father and mentioned in all your educational certificates as your father.

2. Execute an affidavit before a 1st Class Judicial Magistrate affirming that inadvertently your Uncle's name, who had taken you to admit in school, was recorded as your father and it continued to be recorded in all your certificates/documents which is required to be corrected and issued afresh with the appropriate correction of your father's name from such and such to such and such being your biological father.

3. After getting the said affidavit affirmed, apply to all the appropriate authorities to correct your father's name accordingly in the certificate/document issued showing your Uncle's name as your father.

4. Thereafter collect the legal heir certificate from the ward counselor of your local Municipal Corporation and then file a partition suit claiming your share of your father's properties.

1. Your mother has no rights to transfer the immovable property over which she has no right or title.

You need not be bothered even if she has already transferred some property because that is not binding on you in the partition suit.

You can file partition suit seeking your share and separate possession of the same, let them give a reply top court accordingly and the court to decide about its fate.

2. The revenue department shall furnish you the legal heirship certificate after discreet enquiry about the family details and the actual legal heirs of the deceased to succeed his estates.

3. For what you want to go for gazette?

specify.

4. Gazette has got nothing to do with the partition suit.

Your birth certificate will be the proper proof otherwise you only have to look for some other proofs to prove your actual biological father.

1. Your mother is one of the legal heirs of your demised father in addition to all her children. So, in the worst case, she can deal with her share of your father's property only and not the entire property.If she has sold or transferred title of the entire property or more share of the property than she holds, the said deed of conveyance will come to lime lite when you shall file the partition suit and can be challenged by you at that time.

2. The Tehshilder of your area or the ward counselor of the local Municipal Corporation can issue the said legal heir certificate and before issuing the same they will require you to submit an affidavit in connection with your claim.

3. After executing the affidavit before a 1st Class Judicial Magistrate, you shall have to publish the gist of the notice in the gazette and also two local Newspapers, one being in vernacular.Your employment status or age does not come in the way in following the rule & procedure.

4. It appears that you have improper apprehension about gazette. Actually no body is expected to see the gazette. Have you so far seen any gazette in your life till date and read the entire gazette. this is a formality only carried out from the British period. However, you can file the partition suit before executing the affidavit (gazette publication comers as a consequence of the said affidavit) but it will complicate the said suit.You can pray for the DNA test of your mother with you to establish who is your mother and in that case she will affirm that you are her son through her husband. Certified copy of the title deed of your father's property cxan be collected by you from the local Sub-Registrar;'s office.

1) Can my mother write property which is self acquired by B Father to anyone of my brother or sister without consent of other family members? - if she wished to give property yo anyone, then She can give only her share from the undivided property. Not more than that.

suppose it happens already what action can i take?- If she has given whole property to anyone then the other legal heirs can ask for his or her share. Firstly mutually, if no remedy then try alternative dispute resolution, still no remedy then file a case before the Court.

2) i am staying in Andhra pradesh . Can Mandal Revenue officer issue legal heir certificate based on enquiry and other proofs like family photos, videos ,wedding card. where b father name is mentioned .- "You can obtain a Succession Certificate through your Taluk / Thasildhar or through the District Civil Court (please note that a succession certificate is issued by a civil court to the legal heirs of a deceased person).

3) Can i go for gazette at this age (45) being a govt.employee ? - A gazette is an official journal, a newspaper of record, or simply a newspaper. If you wish then you can go for gazette.

4) Can i file a partition suit without going for gazette ? if yes, How i can prove my identity as son of B father? and i have no photo copy of property documents also? - first, you have to prove that you ate the legal heir of your biological father, then you have to show that you have not got your share after the death of your father who had died intestate. For such reason you are now before the Court to get remedy.
