• Right of property for married daughters

My father has recently expired. I am his only daughter. Besides he has one more son elder to me. I am married. He had 3 cottah land (Kolkata Municipality area) on which a 3 storied building (550 sqft app in each floor) was built on 1.65 cottah 45 yrs back (which is duly assessed by KMC and property tax is being paid regularly) and rest 1.4 cottah was vacant. As per his plan (made by an engineer but not KMC approved) there was a common stairs with 2 flats on either side in each floor. He prepared flats of South part only keeping the provision to construct north side flats in future. By a gift deed he gave me that 1.35 cottah few yrs back. and told me verbally that he will give me right to use stairs so that I can build my own building on the north part as per his drawing. But he suddenly expired due to huge cerebral attack within 12 hrs. After his death it was found that my brother has got a gift deed from him by giving entire 3 storied building with 1.65 land on which it is built. My brother is now denying to give me any right to use that stairs. May I do anything legally. Can a daughter be deprived to get equal property right?
