Dear Jas - Your exist in the property. Under Hindu Law and read with other Law you are entitle for share in ancentral property. Engage local lawyer and first issue them notice and then approach appropriate court for stay order against sale or transfer and thereafter for allotment of share in the property and division of property. There are no separate provisions for NRIs for putting cases before Fast Track Courts and also with respect to the property. You have to go through the routine and regular Civil Court of your jurisdiction.

thank you so much Mr. trivedi for your invaluable advice.i will initiate the process.

You will get a meagre share in the property.The shares transferred to your father by his sisters are his self acquired property.You can get your share from what your father got as his own share.

Thanks a lot to all the members for helping me out in my earlier above post.i took your advice and went and filed a court case and gave the evidence that proved that the above said property was my ancestral property and that my father inherited it from my grandfather when he died.i'm demanding in court 1/3rd share to be put in revenue records as i have one sibling , a brother hence 1/3rd share.my first question is that the declaration of my 1/3rd on the revenue records is it called partition? my second question is i'm married and if a child is born to me after 1/3rd share is declared in the revenue records will my child have share in the joint family property or just in my 1/3rd share? the joint property is mushtarak khata. i'm an NRI and if my child is not indian born can it still inherit ancestral property? kindly reply me at the earliest.
