How to divide the propety.

My mother had left 21 house plots, 20 plots having an area of 5 and half cents and one plot of area 6 cents.

All plots have the same value of Rs. 20,000 per cent.

We are 5 sons and 5 daughters.

I am the third among the sons.

Mother had left no will.

I am of the opinion that the properties should be equally divided among the 10 members.

I have obtained the leagal heirs certificate from the revenue department.

But my elder brothers are against this 10 divisions.

They don't want to give shares to their sisters.

Their argument is that for their marriages
enough amount had been spent.

But the expenditure was done while my mother was alive.

My contention is that If we, including the mother, had spent money, the properties my mother could have been well sold during the life time of my mother and the amount could have been realised with the wishes of mother. But having the mother expired,(10 years had elapsed after the expiry of my mother) and having not written any will, it is too late to deicide other wise. Now there is no other go except partition among the 10.

Because of this dispute, we are not in a position to transfer the properties in the individual names.

My question is ,"Is there any way without going to court, to get my 1/10 th share, (not 1/5 the share), with out bothering about others.

Kindly note that leaving the 6 cent plot, can I transfer two plots in my name which is of equal area and value as other plots.
Learned experts please advice.
Thanking you,

can a decree is executable without a separate prayer of Mandatory injunction?

Sir/Madam,
Would you like to clarify my problem? My problem is - Plaintiff filed a suit for a path/way from his house to road intervening a government land over which 8 quarters exists, with a prayer to declare his right and to demolish 8 quarters along with perpetual injunction. Ultimately the court decreed in his favour and he filed for execution of the decree. So my question is can this decree is executable without a separate prayer of Mandatory injunction. If yes kindly do provide some citations of any High court or Supreme Court. Waiting for your valuable reply. -Ramdas-

attestation on chief affidavit in 138 Of N I act case

One gentle man filed a case under 138 of NI act. When it was come for trail he filed his chief affidavit before the court. After that he came to witness box and the defense council cross examined him. Entire trail completed.

At the time of arguments the defense council raised a point that the chief affidavit was not attested by any person hence the evidence of the complainant can not be taken into consideration. So the accused must be acquitted.
Is it correct as per oath act or general clauses act. Please let me know.
