On the death of the mother her property, that is left intestate, has devolved upon all the legal heirs. The rights, title and interest, so vested, cannot be altered by the entrries made or changed in the Municipal or Revenue records. Such entries are primarily for fiscal purposes as to the person liable for paying the taxes and other revenue/municipal levies.

If you have received a notice from the revenue department, you can give a reply stating that it is incorrect and illegal to transfer the revenue records on the name of the deceased person.
You can also give an explanation under which this was transferred to the legal heirs, hence the authorities have no rights to revert the entry just because somebody has given a frivolous complaint.
Subsequently you can approach civil court with a suit for permanent injunction restraining them from reverting the revenue records to the name of the deceased.
