1. Details provided by you is inadequate for proper advice,

2. Whose property it was? Was it your grandfather's property or your faher's property?

3. How has your father's brother converted the said property in his name? What document is he showing in support of his such conversion?

4. However, if you do not have any particular document to claim the said property or any share thereon, first conduct a search from the registry office to ascertain in whose name the property has been last registered & obtain a certified copy of the title deed which has been last registered,

5. If the title of the property registered is shown in your grandfather's or father's name, file a partition suit claiming your share,

6. If the title deed last registered is found to be in your Uncle's name, even then you file partition suit challenging the said Title Deed of your uncle on appropriate ground,

7. Engage a local lawyer for the purpose.

If you were minor at the time of property transfer, there must be a guardian appointed on behalf of you to take care of the property till you become a major which in your case seems to be your uncle. Your question is lacking some information, kindly elaborate your question. Also mention whose property originally it was. Find out from the Talathi office in whose name the property is at present if you are so sure and then initiate proper legal proceeding with the help of local lawyer.

1. If the property has been got transferred by your father's brother to himself then he must have got the title deed registered in the office of local registrar. You can carry out a title search in the office of registrar by taking the assistance of an expert. Once you succeed in finding the relevant document apply for a certified copy thereof.

2. If the property was transferred and registered to your name then it could not subsequently have been transferred by any one except the owner i.e you. The subsequent transfer of property, made at the instance of a person other than the owner, is illegal. After obtaining a certified copy of the title deed you can challenge the subsequent transfer in court.

1. Try to get the certified copy of the Title Deed by which your grandfather acquired the said property,

2. You can get the same by conducting search based on property schedule like Dag No., Khatian No., Holding No., Mouza name etc. as is followed in your area. It is not very difficult to get the said copy. Engage a lawyer having expertise in property search in your area,

3. After collecting the said certified copy of the title deed of your grandfather, file a partition suit against your Uncle.

1) we have already advised you to take title search in sub registrar office . it can be done if you know the CTS no of property , location of the property . your lawyer will do the needful

2) it is not possible to file case without document . you cannot indulge in a fishing expedition . court passes orders on basis of documents on record .
