Share of my mother in property

This query is : Resolved
My maternal grandfather (mother's father) passed away in around 1930. He had one son (my maternal uncle) and one daughter (my mother). All the land in my maternal grandfather's name passed on to my maternal uncle. There was no formal partition as was the tradition at that time. My maternal uncle passed away in 1995 and my mother in 1997. The land passed on to the children of my maternal uncle but there was no formal partition. Now, children of my maternal uncle are beginning to make a formal partition. I have following queries:
1)Is my mother entitled to share in this property as per the amendment in 2005? If yes, then how much share?
2)If no, then is my mother entitled to share as per succession act of 1956 or before? if yes then how much?
thanx in advance

Dear Vandana
Many people are in wrong impression regrading 2005 amendment in fact, every daughter is entitled the share even from the years 1956 of Hindu Succession Act enacted . Then why you kept quite till this time when your mother passed away in 1997 . Therefor approach genuine and eminent advocate in your local because the case to be drafted very craftily in view of such delay to over come.

We kept quiet because they were too powerful. Only now we have some standing. Is there any law which stipulates time frame under which claim has to be made?
