Dear sir,
My grandfather was a freedom fighter and after his death tamil nadu Government has given some 10 acres of land near sathyamangalam,erode dist. in the year 1957 to my granmother. My uncle and my mother are the two kids for my grandmother and my granmother died 2 years ago (2010). All these years my uncle was enjoying the entire property (10 acres of land).Now my mother asked for equal share in that property, but my uncle denies saying that the PATTA for the land is in his name since 1979.
My questions:
1. land alloted for freedom fighters by the Government will be treated as self owned / ancestral property?
2. can my mother has equal rights in this property?
Note : No will was written by my Grandmother on this property
