There is no birth right for you in this property. You may have taken birth in this property or residing in the same place since your birth but you will not have any right over the property if it was the self acquired property of your grandfather. Your grandfather is alive and he has driven away his own son then where is the right for the grandson in the property. Dont be misguided that a grandson will automatically have share in the grandfather's self acquired property.

You will have right as a coparcener in the ancestral property but this is not ancestral property. If you have no other residence and if you are minor, it becomes the duty of your father to maintain you until you attain the age of majority and after that you have o maintain yourself by anyway you may choose.

Hence dont go by anyone's misguidance and lose your hard earned money in the name of claiming your rights, legally you cannot hold a ground this way.

1. Neither you nor your father has any right to reside in the property of your grandfather which he has structured against your father.

2. You would have got a right in the property only if the rights of your father were preserved by his father in the will, but this is clearly not the case.

3. Your father has to obey the High Court order directing him to vacate it within a month. The only other option is to file an appeal in the Supreme Court to seek a stay on the HC order.
