Dear Mr.Vaibhav
You have not mentioned whether your grandfather died without writing any will. If the transfer to his three sons had been made under his will then no other person can claim any share in the property as the land was self acquired. ( I assume here that the purchase was funded from his own earnings)
If your grandfather had dies intestate, then we have to have more details like whether the transfer which was made among the three brothers was made with the consent / knowledge of your grandmother and the daughter of the deceased.
You would better get the opinion by approaching a local lawyer with full facts and documents available with you.
