3) it is immaterial whether you have one son or brother has 2 children
4) you are not liable to repay loan taken by brother
The property will get divided first in two sons means between your brother and you that will be after your father.
If your father is alive than property will get divide in three parts each. Father and two sons.
Than two sons will divide their property to respective legal heirs.
Regarding EMI that will be covered from your brother's share and not from you or your. Father's.
What so ever your brother is saying it's totally wrong.
1. Even though it was your grandfather's self acquired property after inheritance of his share your father becomes an absolute owner of the property he inherited.
In that case, he can decide about distribution of his properties in the manner he may desire and decide and transfer the properties to who ever he may choose, including any member outside his family.
There is no obligation on your father to be under pressure created by your brother.
The logic of your brother is not justified.
It appears he is not willing for an amicable settlement,but if he chooses the legal route then he will be loser because his claim is not legally maintainable or tenable in law, as neither he nor you have any rights in yor father's property at lest not during his lifetime.
2. It is absolutely an unjustified demand.
If he has availed the loan, then it is his responsibility to repay the loan.
He cannot legally insist on you to repay the loan in any percentage.
There will be three equal share father will take 1/3 sons will take 1/3 each, after father his 1/3 will be divided equally between two sons. Under Hindu law property is divided per stripe, that is per branch of family not per capita that is according to number of family members. As son may have any number of sons, but he will take equal share other son. As loan is taken by brother you not bound to pay half of it.
