Family settlement deed

(Querist) 28 April 2012 This query is : Resolved 
my father had made a family settlement deed with his eldest son
and givem him flat and got it registered in his name by getting the family settlement deed registered. Memorandum of family settlement was entered earlier between father and eldest son in which the eldest son had agreed that after getting this flat he will have no right claim in any other property of his father.Memorandum of family settlement was made part and parcel of the family settlement deed at the time of registeration of the dded. My question is now after the death of father does the eldest son have succession rights on the property of his father or does the family settlement deed restricts him from succession rights it does restricts his right kindly sepcify clearly UNDER WHAT LAW OR SECTION HIS RIGHTS ARE RESTRICTED will it fall under indian contract act 1872 or indian succession act and the property self aquired by father now when i have given that family settlement to patwari my elder brother is asking the patwari not to conider that family settlement and that he should get succession right in his father property which in memorandum he has no claimkindly suggest me what to say to patwari or otherwise what should i do can the doctrine of estopel restrict him from succession rights
