Ancestoral Property

as per law, the ancestral property cannot be transferred by way of will. All the legal heirs have the equal share in the property. Your father's share that came from your grandfather can only be divided equally among all the children of your father.

Thanks for the response. What about the land my father bought by selling part of his share of my grandfather's property? Can that be considered ancestoral ?

my mother had a property bought by paying her own hard earned money. When my mother was bedridden suffering from serious injury and high degree diabetis and was not able to move either of her hands,my father made her Power of attorney on his name (without my mother 's knowladge, and) with my mother's forged signature,got it notarised and registerd half of the said property on his name. I could find out this only when my mother expired without a will.How come i challange this activity and ask for equal distribution of my mother's said property  among all of her legal heirs ?
 

@ James.M - A property is considered to be self acquired of one , only  if it is acquired by one's hard earned money. Unless you can prove that the property is not acquired by your father's own money, the land  will be considered as a self acquired property only of your father only...
