My mother was born in 1985. Our grandfather passed away in 1995, leaving behind property that he inherited from his father. He had gifted half the property to his daughters, my aunts. There are four sisters and five brothers in the family, with my mother being the eldest. Recently, my uncles divided the remaining land, but they haven’t given any share to my aunts, including my mother. This land is worth crores and is now only 1.5 acres. My grandfather didn’t leave a will, and my mother is battling cancer. My aunts are struggling financially, and we are worried about their future. They are asking for their rightful share, but my uncles are refusing, saying they might give 1-2 plots after 10 years. What legal options do we have to ensure my mother and aunts get their fair share of the property?
Your mother and aunts have a legal right to inherit their share of the property as per the Hindu Succession Act, 1956. They can file a suit for partition of the property in a civil court, seeking their rightful share based on the law and the grandfather's gift. A legal professional can guide on further legal options and the specific steps to be taken.
