This is regarding Grand Father's property issue. My Grand Father has property in Village, (Ghazipur District, Uttar Pradesh). He has two son and two daughter.

No,you have no right over the property as said property is not ancestral.After partition of property the same was indivisual /self acquired property of your father and he got all the rights of ownership including to sell the property.

Dear Yashwant,
since you say that the property was partitioned only between your father and your uncle (and not your aunts) after the death of your grand father, it gives an impression that the property was 'ancestral', and your father inherited his share in the 'ancestral property'.
If that be so, then they do not have any right to dispose of the same without your consent.
You have to challenge the 'sale deed'. for this you have to consult and engage an experienced local lawyer in your locality. You only have to go to your locality and ascertain about the lawyer.

Your father become sole owner of property when it was distributed between your father and uncle. It is not an ancestral property. so you have no right to sue..

I do not agree with the views of Mr. Ravikant. Just because a property was distributed does not in itself go to prove that the property is personal property of the person who gets it in partition. On the contrary, even an ancestral property when partitioned will continue to retain its 'ancestral' character. What is important is to determine whether the property was 'ancestral' in nature or not. In the instant case, if it had not been ancestral property, then the property would have gone in equal share to all the legal heirs (instead of only to two male members in the family), unless the other members had relinquished their respective rights in the property in favour of the two male members in question.
