How the paper goes in the hands of Cousin brother ? What is your role?

The grandfather's children and his wife are entitled to equal shares. Merely because someone in the co-sharer is having title deeds, he can not become the absolute owner and he is a Trustee for him and for all others. The possession is for all the undivided members in the family. . There are several aspects to be considered and established like possession, mutation records, tax paid receipts, the fact that the property was not divided into metes and bounds etc. Contact a local advocate, discuss the facts, show those documents required and get a notice issued to the co-sharer.
