was it ancestral property or self acquired property of your grand father . ? the said property was bequeathed to your father by his father .I presume it was self acquired property . your father can by will bequeath the property to whom so ever he desires . why does he want to disinherit you . ?

If it was self acquired property of your GF and he gave it to your father thru., will then your father is absolute owner, he can give to anybody.

sir,

Actually 3 acres of land was ancestral property of my grand father, and other 5 acres is self acquired property of my grand father. but he has made will of all 8 acres to my father.
Does that make any change in the above view provided by you experts?

Answer:

Why didn't you tell it right in inception.

The Will is entirely valid for 5 acres.

The Will is partially valid for 3 acres,that is to say to the extent your grandfather had share in those 3 acres.

Understand your fathers status also accordingly.
