Daughter's right in parental property

after 2005 amendment daughters have rights equal to that of a son in ancestral property.so you file for a partition suit in the court to claim your share in the ancestral property

Thank you saravanan.s. for your reply. But my question was can my brothers force me to unlock these rooms and give up my possession through court?

Cannot go for partition since we are all (me and my 2 brothers) bound by our promises (written and oral) to my father not to go for partition in this grandmother's property. Also I myself don't want to breakup this property.

If  those posessions you are talking about belongs to part of ancestral property  then it belongs to everyone who forms part of the coparcenary. you cant retain it for yourself unless you all go for a partition and those posessions forms part of your share in ancestral property.

my question was can my brothers force me to unlock these rooms and give up my possession through court?if they are going to take this issue to court it got to be solved only through partition suit.

It is joint HUF property, sir. My father had other brothers (along with their children) too.

As far as I know, property derived from grandmother (female) is not ancestral property.

Also in West Bengal, Dayabhaga law is applied as state law.

According to Hindu Succession amendment Act,2005 you have same and equal share like your 2 brothers in your ancestral property even if it is a part of HUF property.

Two rooms which you locked up cannot be claimed by your brothers as those two rooms were allotted to you by your father during his life time as apportionment by mutual arrangement for your exclusive use and occupancy.

Matter of fact, the property remains undivided as of now but your brothers have approached court for taking possession.  Actually they should have filed a partition suit instead of claiming possession or dispossessing you.  That is illegal, wait for the outcome of the court case or challenge the same on the basis of merits on your side.  You are right that the property inherited by your father from his mother will not be considered as ancestral property but it will not be treated as HUF property as well.  You have full rights to a share in the property left behind intestate by your father who inherited the property from his mother and had been enjoying it till his death as an absolute owner.
