HE CAN MAKE A WILL IN FAVOUR OF ANY BODY AS THE PROPERTY IS SELF ACQUIRED.

Madam. As he acquired the property by way of a gift deed ( might have been a registered one as per the law of the land) he has absolute rights over the same and he can give the same to whomsoever he likes during his life time.

1) if your grand father has gifted his self acquired property, the gift is valid and your father is absolute owner and it becomes his self acquire property.
2) if your grand father has gifted the ancestarl property, a Hindu cannot gift the ancestral property. if you are a Hindu, you can challenge the validity of the gift

Yes your father has absolute right to dispose the property as he like as the property once it has come into the hands of your father may be by way of gift or by way partition it acquire the status of self acquired property. as such he has absolute right to dispose the property as he like.

He can even give full property to strangers. You can claim only after his death.

yes, i agree with Mr Jitendra.
1) If your grand father has gifted his self acquired property, the gift is valid and your father is absolute owner and it becomes his self acquire property.
2) If your grand father has gifted the ancestarl property, a Hindu cannot gift the ancestral property. if you are a Hindu, you can challenge the validity of the gift.
3) In either case you can get the right as a grand daughter, which gives the strength to you and restricts others to alienate the property by any means.
you need to consult the suitable advocate at your place.
