my father acquired properties from his father( my grand father) and he( my grand father) acquired his share from his father. it means these properties were transferred from children to children from the year 1910 onwards.
in the year 1994 my father wrote a will in which he has given the properties to his son( which comprises anscesstral house, landed properties worth 1.5 acres and all cash balances except Rs 1 lakh to second daughter and a small land of 14 cents to elder daughter.
when propert act was passes in 1976( or so ) all the children are alive. i heard hindu suceesion act gives equal rights to all children whether the daughters can claim for a fresh partion by quashing the will of father as all are entitled to get equal share in the anscesstral property. please enlighten me????
