A person who died in 1972 obtained 200 bighas from his father through the partition. So the share of 200 bighas is his own property and his son, 5 daughters, and wife if alive have equal shares over the property. But the son gifted/sold the property and some property has been re-transferred. re-transferred to whom and by whom? Whether wife of person A is alive or not? Who do you keep silent all these years?

1. Your mother alone can file suit for partition claiming her share out of her father's property.
She need not go for cancellation of any partition or sale deed that has happened earlier.
2.It depends on the state' policy over pecuniary jurisdiction. You can enquire locally.
3. The above answer suits this question too.
4. There is no limitation for partition suit
5. yes

Yes, your mother may file a partition suit claiming her due share, leaving it to the defendant(s) to come up with the facts.
