Hello,

Children of 1st brother will have the right to claim the property only after the death of 1st brother. Moreover, 1st brother has the right to give his property as per his wish. However, if the property is ancestral all will have an equal share in the property. In any circumstances, sons of 1st brother's 1st wife can not get 70% of property as per their demand.
