sir,
We are 6 children(3 males and 3 females).Our father had aquired all of the property from his ancestors(he has no self aquired property).He died without dividing the property(he died in 1999).Our mother is alive.I am one of his daughters and am married.I would like to know if i have equal right in the property along with my brothers since it is ancestral property and was not divided before his death.can i claim for equal share and how much share can i get.please kindly advice.thank you.

As the property is an ancestral and your father died in 1999 so you are not entitled to seek equal share rather you are entitled to inherit only 1/15 share out of the property left by your father.
