You have to file an application before the Tahasildar (MRO) for grant of Legal Heir Certificate. Further you can also file an application in Form 6-A, for issuance of Virasat(Succession) Proceedings. After that, it willbe ordered to record/mutate all your names in revenue records as Pattedars & Possesors i.e., Owners. Any of the family member can file application. If they reject to do so, you can file a suit for declaration as successors/legal heirs of your deceased father.
For further assitance you can call me

I dnt from where u r. In Karnataka if the deceases is govt., employee then legal heir certificate will be issued by the Tahasildar of the Taluk, otherwise we have to obtain it from the civil court by issuing a notice to the Govt., u/s 80 of CPC. to avoid the notice I had filed a case aginst other family member contending that they are denying that Plaintiff is not the legal heir of the deceased, after serving the notice compromise was done.
Actually it is not necessary to issue notice.
Suit can be filed without the deendants, it is know was suit in rem.

Dear Harita,
First of all your problem is where and from whom to get the legal heir certificate ?- You can get the same from local MRO or Tahasildar as per your state laws or provisins. Siply you have file
an application giving in detais of family members with age and relation with late father along with a death certificate.
Secondly, you have asked that one of your sister is in U.S and whether her presence required during filing of such application ? No not required- Any one of member of your family can apply for the same.
