Dear Shivaraj,
In the year 1956, Hindu succession Act gave her absolute right to inherit in the self acquired properties but prevented her from becoming co-percenar. Latter in the year 2005 another amendment act made as copercenar. So in the year 1982 your father and children executed partition of his self acquired properties are legally valid and no one has any right.

in case of self acquired property your father has got every right to aleniate the same as per his wish. If your father has died intestate leaving self acquired proerty then you are eligible for partition and have equal rights as that of your brothers. In your case you does not have any right to file partition suit.
