Sir,
My father- in- law who's name is Sridhar Rao,got 20 Acres of land got from his father. I married his daughter in 2004. He got 4 daughters and one son. My wife is youngest. Recently my father-in law sold part of his land i.e. 2 Acres to his third daughter for which he got a flat from them, without intimating us anything. Is is possible to sell his land like this? if not what are the ways to approach and get the details?Has not my wife got any relation with that land? pl. help me.

As your father-in-law got land from his father it becomes an inherited property. Your father-in-law does not get absolute right to deal with the property without the permission of all those who are entitled for a share in it.
Your wife is entitled for a share in it. She may sue her father in a court of law for her share and bring an ad-interim temporary injunction against any alienation by him.
