My 3rd number uncle create wheal forcefully with my grand father and write in that my father remaining land + my grand father land on his name. That all we know after grand father dead. Then 2nd uncle case file in court and cancel that wheal. Now that 2 part of land having 3 names. Still not given by 3rd uncle. In this big lose is my father - already less land so that remaining land + grand father land. But my both uncle doing  action drama like I will dead and case your Or some time my anti doing action drama. So my father don't like to involve this matter but we want our land legally.

1. You are silent whether your grand father has divided the land among your father and uncles in sharers or not .

2. If your grand father has died without making the division of his properties then all his sons and daughters have equal shares in the land,

3. Now of any o0f them is causing problem to give due share to another or is forcibly occupying more land than others then any of them can file suit for partition and separate possession.

4. They can apply for injunction as well so the land in possession of any co sharer may remain is his peaceful possession till final decision of the court comes.

Hi, if there is no partition taken place in the family all the daughters and sons have equal rights over the property.

2. From your narration the will executed by your grandfather was held not valid then all the parties are entitled for equal share.

1. You have stated that your third uncle forced your grand father to make a will of his entire land in his favour, which was subsequently held as illegal by the court when challenged by your other uncle.

2. If the will has been declared as illegal by the court then the property of your grand father would devolve equally on all his children including your father. None of your uncles can, in the absence of a will, claim to have a greater share in the property.

Your father can file a suit for partition to cull out his share in the land. He can also seek an injunction to stop his brothers from selling the land.

1. Your grandfather's property will be equally divided amongst all his legal heirs if he has demised intestate,

2. If there is a will written by him, the legatee shall have to obtain grant of probate from the Court,

3. However, if your father refuses to be involved with any court case with his brothers, being impressed by their so called action drama, then you have no role to play here during his life time.
