when the holder of the property died (even if without child) his spouce has full right on his share. your mother can claim on the rest of property.

The right of your mother cannot be snatched by any person. Your surviving aunt can get exclusive share of her deceased husband but your mother is requirement to challenge the settlement which was executed only between two son of your deceased grand-father leaving your mother and subsequently the inheritance of your maternal uncle who died issue-less shall also go in favour of your mother and accordingly your mother is required to file a civil suit for setting aside the alleged settlement, mutation entered on that basis and all subsequent proceedings.

As your recently died maternal uncle was also having more land than his actual share due to non-inclusion of your mother at the time of the settlement, your aunt cannot claim exclusive ownership of the entire estate left by her husband.
