My father bought a property in 1995 from a Muslim woman and her sons. The property was registered in the name of her grandson, but she had three younger children who filed a case in 2000 claiming their mother and brothers cheated them out of their share. They argued the property belonged to their grandfather, and the court ruled that the woman couldn’t sell a property belonging to her minor children. Now, with the 12-year limitation period almost over, the court has awarded them a 2/17 share. How can I help my father secure the property?

Based on the information provided, it appears the court ruling might be based on the principle of “fraudulent transfer.” However, it’s crucial to consult with a lawyer specializing in property law in India. They can assess the specific details of the case and advise on the best course of action to help secure the property.

My mother was born in 1985. Our grandfather passed away in 1995, leaving behind property that he inherited from his father. He had gifted half the property to his daughters, my aunts. There are four sisters and five brothers in the family, with my mother being the eldest. Recently, my uncles divided the remaining land, but they haven’t given any share to my aunts, including my mother. This land is worth crores and is now only 1.5 acres. My grandfather didn’t leave a will, and my mother is battling cancer. My aunts are struggling financially, and we are worried about their future. They are asking for their rightful share, but my uncles are refusing, saying they might give 1-2 plots after 10 years. What legal options do we have to ensure my mother and aunts get their fair share of the property?

My grandfather, who owned a property along with his siblings, left it to his three sons. He divided his share between two of his sons, while the other share was given to a different son. Before his passing in 1961, he declared a partition of the property. My father, one of the two sons who received a share, sold part of his inheritance to his two sons to repay his debts. He relied heavily on agricultural income but faced financial difficulties and accumulated loans. One of my uncles has now filed a lawsuit claiming the property is ancestral and the sale was invalid. The sale took place in 2003, and he initially filed a case in 2008 that was unsuccessful. He then filed a new lawsuit in 2010. I need advice on our legal standing in this matter.
