Women rights on ancestral property

I am from Bangalore. My father's sisters are claiming for ancestral property. My grandfather died in 1974

Ancestral property came to my father in 1989/90 as he was eldest son as below:

 

My Great Grand father (A)

My Grand Father (B) & 2 Brothers (C & D)

My Father (E) & His helder sister (F) and Younger sister (G)

 

Property came from A to B (as B was the eldest son) and B died in 1974.

Property came from B to E (B to E in 1989/90) as E was the eldest son.

 

F got married in 1976 and G got married in 1990.  3 acre land was sold by E in 1993 for the marriage of his sister G and in the sale deed there is a mention of that.

 

Land divided among E, C& D in 1989 and 1990 based on prior verbally agreed partition arrangment 

 

Now F and G (my father’s sisters) are claiming share in E's property.

 

Pls help to answer below:

 

1. kindly clarify if both F and G are entitled to the land in view of Karnataka high court order judgment on hindu succession act as per which daughter is a coparcener by birth as of a son and has equal share.  Has she got any right and if so is it equal share?

 

2. Can the land sold for her marriage be considered as her share?

 

3. Karnataka High court order dated 19/03/2010 providing equal rights to daughters by birth on or after 17/06/1956 and if partition is made before 2004 whether she has any right?

 

4. Is they are eligible to claim shares from E's Property which has already sold on 1993

once  sold property particularly for the expenses of women marriage which was  mentioned in the document,it cannot be considered as family property though it is before or after.any how the remaining portion have to be distributed as per succession act..they can claim not only in e but also from c and d .take nearest advocate opinion.
