My father inherited a piece of ancestral land from his grandmother through her will, about 30 years ago. Now, his brothers are asking for a share in the property. The land is registered in my father’s name and we’ve been living there for the past three decades. Do his brothers have a legal claim to it?
Best Answer
Yes, your father’s brothers may have a legal claim to the land. Under Indian law, ancestral property is subject to the rules of inheritance, and even if your father inherited it through a will, his brothers might still have a right to a share depending on the specific circumstances and applicable laws, such as the Hindu Succession Act. It is recommended to consult with a lawyer to determine the exact legal position.
