So, your father could not realize all these 22 years that he was made to sign the agreement forcedly, which you have now detected!
By the way, what is your age at present and how you came to know now that the agreement was (forcely) signed by your father in 1993?

document which is not stamped and registered is inadmissible in evidence . if 2 acres have not been transferred in your uncle name
your father can file suit for partition to claim his share in property .

Your father should file case of partition of the property. Consult local lawyer and show him all the documents.

Yes, I agree with the experts' opinion that if the documents for sale was not registered, it will be invalid in the eyes of law, hence your father has a ground for seeking partition and separate possession of the share of his property in the jointly held property.
