Dear Mitul,

Taking care of parents is a moral responsibility. If one brother is not taking care of parents other brother cannot sue him for the same. Its the parents who can proceed with filing a case u/s 125 of Cr. P. C. for maintenance before Court of Law. Parents as you said are ailing have a good ground to be maintained by the son who isn't supporting them financially.

In case you need more guidance, feel free to communicate.
